On evening 5/2/2019 I picked up a small seabird dead less than 24 hours but beginning to smell.
Rubicon Estuary beach, Hawley Beach , just 10 km east of Devonport NW Tasmania .
Weight 77g , damp but no fat at all,
Wing length 160 mm and tail 60 mm bill length 27 m , skull may have been bit squashed .
I have no idea so any suggestions gratefully received
