COLONY UPDATE
Good afternoon everyone,
A good weigh round today with Sharyn. All chicks got to go for a ride in the basket (some more willingly than others). Tūmanako was a healthy 10.4kg. This is quite a drop from Friday’s 12.1kg but he is still a good weight. Our lightest bird today was 8.1kg and the heaviest was 11.3kg. Since starting out here it has been my dream to weigh all the chicks and have them all at such good weights that none of them require supplementary feeding. Today was not that day but only two needed a top up so it was close. I did find out though that while I was away Sharyn had a dream day and didn’t need to do any supplementary feeding. Lucky! That was great news for me.
On our rounds today we found two small piles of regurgitated squid beaks next to some chicks. This was interesting in itself but in those piles were also several small pieces of plastic. A disheartening sight as we know the impact plastic has on seabirds around the world.
