Hi all, Here are some photos from the 16th August Southport pelagic: http://www.adarman.com/Pelagics/Queensland-Pelagics/2014-August-16-Southpor t/ Of the 18 species we saw 12 were tubenoses. The first highlight of the trip was a White-headed Petrel. The Light-mantled Albatross showed a cream-coloured mantle (no scalloping), a narrow eye-crescent, a black bill with an obvious blue sulcus, and fresh-looking remiges – likely a 3rd year bird. The Gibson’s Albatross was an older immature/subadult female. The adult Masked Booby had a whitish iris and hence was a S. d. personata. Other ‘good’ birds were a dark intermediate morph Kermadec Petrel and a Black-bellied Storm-petrel. Paul will post a full trip report soon on the SOSSA website: http://www.sossa-international.org/ Cheers, Nikolas A/Prof Nikolas Haass | Head, Experimental Melanoma Therapy Group The University of Queensland Diamantina Institute Level 6 | Translational Research Institute | 37 Kent Street | Woolloongabba QLD 4102 T: +61 (0)7 3443 7087 | M: +61 (0)424 603 579 F: +61 (0)7 3443 6966 E: n.haass1@uq.edu.au | W: www.di.uq.edu.au …Turning scientific discoveries into better treatmentsŠ CRICOS Code 00025B This email is intended solely for the addressee.
