Tropicbird in Gloucester

Dear all

After much scrutiny and backings and forwardings, it was agreed the immature Tropicbird picked up in Stratford on 22 March, and sent from Gloucester to Port Macquarie, is a Red-tailed, not a White-tailed. Its weight and the black bill were what got us all wondering, and then referral to HABZAB confirmed it as red.

Sorry for the mis-information. If anyone wishes to see a photograph, email me direct and I’ll email back. ===============================
