We went back in the evening with
lights and net hoping to get at
least one of the gulls but could
find no trace of either.
Feb 8
Light to heavy showers much of
day, with strong gusts.
A second egg appeared in Brown
Booby nest 2 (egg#3). The 3 gray-back
eggs are still on the dock and.
the fourth, which is reddish brown
rather than white, may also belong
to a gray-back - at least, one was
sitting right beside it. 75+ birds
on dock 11 A.M.
A group of ~25 Common Noddies
was present on the gun spit
at the same time - first time I
have seen noddies present in
daytime except for 3 on eggs
and 1 or two others.
Dave said he saw a G. frigate
feeding an irin.
