| | Black Bittern Boat Ramp / Tidal pool adjacent to Wingham Brush, Wingham | Good view of BB this afternoon.
Pleasant surprise to see this bird here. We have seen many BB's in Nthn Qld, but not in the town we now live. | Chris. Catt and Janine Bailey 18/3 #270326 |
Sat 16 | | Grey Noddy, Black Petrel Offshore--Sydney Pelagic |
| Two Black Petrels were encountered at the shelf along with a Grey Noddy. The Noddy gave great views as it flew almost over the stern of the boat before turning and heading south. We had many Flesh-footed Shearwaters out wide and at the shelf. Two Grey-faced Petrels joined the slick as well as a handful of Wilson's Storm-Petrels. Other species included an immature Black-browed Albatross, a number of Shy Albatrosses, Pomarine Jaegers and Wedge-tailed, Short-tailed and Hutton's Shearwaters. Four juvenile Australasian Gannets approached the boat on the return trip. Water temperatures are still high at the shelf at 27+C. We had a northward current too.
