      <description><![CDATA[Highlights from today's pelagic departing from Eaglehawk neck were: Light-mantled Sooty Albatross (1) observed very close to the boat providing excellent views for all on board, White-necked Petrel (1) which was also observed close to the boat by multiple observers and on two occasions. I am currently in the process of seeking confirmation, but this is (we believe) the first record of this species in Tasmanian waters - photographs available. Other noteworthy sightings included (19+)  Buller's Albatross, (1) Fluttering Shearwater and (1) unidentified jaegar sp.
Observers: John Weigel, Els Wakefield, Paul Brooks, James Melville, JJ Harrison, Andrew W, Margaret Mitchell, Richard White, Peter Jenkins,  Richard Johnstone & Ruth Brozek on board the Pauletta.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[[ A large, mottled, muddy brown falcon observed flying at high speed along canal a few metres above water, seen briefly from less than 10 metres. Lacked obvious facial marking, underpart colour, or tail barring. A juvenile Peregrine would appear to be the only other falcon of this size, but colour and marking didn't appear to match (in my experience). This is a "heads up" not a 'claimed' record!]]]></description>
