Last of the Buller's shearwaters migrating north now


Bullers shearwaters breed on the Poor Knight Islands and migrate south to feed, with flocks of up tp 150 sighted off Bank's Peninsula before heading northwards into the Northern Pacific to waters off Japan and Alaska- an epic migration. Small group sighted off Kaikoura last week on the Albatross encounter offshore pelagic trip.
