I would like to endorse Rob's grateful remarks. Thanks for the organisation
of the trips Rohan, and to all on board who helped out this seabird novice
with confirmations of ID and help in spotting the less cooperative
individuals. Thanks to those who gave advice for other birding also.
Since then I have had some great birding experiences in Tassie and Victoria;
the high paced waddle of a Ground Parrot at Tasman Arch and watching a
Superb Lyrebird go through his repertoire were highlights. Six species of
robin in a week, a single Southern Whiteface in the You Yangs and a pair of
Bassian Thrushes enjoying the winter sun in the Dandenongs also stood out
for me.

Thanks for organising the trips and the comprehensive reports Rohan.
Here are links to my photos from the weekend - of mixed quality. I struggled
with the Grey Petrel on a grey background and a fast moving Blue Petrel at
distance from the boat was a challenge. I was still delighted to see these
two lifers for me, and at least get some representative photos.
