In 2 hours, we managed to see and ID:
Black-browed Albatross 20 (4) - one possible Campbells
Southern Giant Petrel 1 (1)
Northern Giant Petrel 1 (1)
Australasian Gannet 30+ (6)
Silver Gull 50+ (25)
Crested Tern 3 (1)
Also, a possible Great-winged Petrel, a few distant Shearwaters (plus a White-fronted Tern seen in the same place on Saturday).
We also managed to get onto a "Shy type"Albatross just before we left. We originally thought it might have been Salvin's, but a post on Birding-Aus clarified that is was indeed just a juvenile White-capped Albatross. Thanks to Nikolas Haass, Brook Whylie, John Graff and Steve Davidson for helping out!
So, adding to the above list:
White-capped (Shy) Albatross 1 (1)
Cheers,
Josh
Northern Giant Petrel
Southern Giant Petrel
White-capped Albatross #2
White-capped Albatross #3
