Experiences with species

Barrie Rose had given me a small hint to get out to the drop off SE of Durban, in early October, where he'd seen 6 Barau's in 2012. I took his advice and we set out, hitting the spot at mid-day. David Allan (and probably several others) thought I was nuts. Until I shouted out BARAU'S PETREL! that is! Thanks Barrie.... We have had success on October and November trips since that first sighting.
