Can anyone tell me what kind of bird this is, on a northern NSW beach? http://www.flickr.com/photos/68268432@N05/

I used the link that appeared in my email notification - I can't see the entire bird but it looks like a gannet, or perhaps a booby. Hopefully it recovered.
I thought booby initially. Wasn't sure if they were found around here. Thanks Andy and Meave. Sorry about my failed posts. If I had read Noisy Major's instructions better I would have gotten it right the first time.
Don't worry about the previous posts - most people need a few goes before they post photos.
Welcome to the forum.

There has to be some reason? Anyway, after all that, welcome to the forum!!!!!

Was able to see the link. Looks like an Australasian Gannet to me.
Cheers, Owen.

I will try it...
Cheers, Owen.
Thanks all for the friendly welcome and thanks to Owen1 for posting my pic.
The head was completely white - the gannnet has a yellowish head doesn't it?
Yes, it does, findingout, but I think I detect a pale yellow wash on this bird's head as well as a black eye patch. It certainly looks like a gannet to me & the gannet is a reasonably distinctive bird.
great. thanks woko.
