Subject: Re: [Birding-Aus] Strange Petrel
Reply-To: Mick Roderick <<>>
Murphy's crossed my mind too Nikolas, but the bird does look more like an
"unusual Cookilaria" than what I imagine a Murphy's to look like (meaning, I
have never seen one!).
Steve - is that 3rd image (bird flying away banking with wings 11 and 5
o'clock) the same bird? It appears to be longer-winged in that image if so.
Also, where exactly where you when you say "NE Pacific"?

Hi Steve,
What about Murphy's Petrel. I guess the face is a bit too white and the
primary bases not extremely reflective. But maybe that fits still within
the range of Murphy's?
Cheers,
Nikolas
