Leach's storm-petrel, New Brighton

It's that time of year again, Leach's storm-petrels are back! I saw this bird flying along the tideline and was able to get some reasonable photos. Tomorrow should be better.........

  1. Cracking photos Colin. I'd love to see one of these but am not sure when I'm going to get a chance. How long do they stay around for?

  2. They'll be around until about the middle of October, though obviously we need a good north westerly blow to bring them in.
