More Bruny Is festival

Now some Albatross shots:

And... a little blurry, but I love the size comparison right next to the Fairy Prion:

Hope these post ok. If these are ok, I have more of other seabirds from that day + others from Bruny Is itself...

Good series. Those Albatrosses are such mammoth birds. That Prion looks Pardalote size yet it is as big as a Lorikeet according to my field guide!

Cheers, Owen.
