Hi guys
Just back from 2 glorious weeks birding New Zealand, and had a work-trip back to Sydney 22-24 October. I was lucky enough to make it onto a pelagic out of Wollongong, 1 hour south of Sydney on the 23rd, some photos attached, including a map from my geotagger of the route taken. We went 30nm offshore to the continental shelf, but birds were evident from leaving the harbour itself.
New lifers were Providence Petrel and Brown Skua :)
