Hello all -
I am continuing work on a project of the Federation of BC Naturalists,
to establish viewing guidelines for seabird concentrations,
specifically for Important Bird Areas in southern Georgia Strait, but
obviously it will have broader applicability. I would appreciate any
assistance in accessing a) any existing guidelines in place anywhere
you know of, and b) any research which helps establish safe viewing
distances or limits on disturbance.

If you can help, or for more information about this project, please
contact me off-list.

Thanks in advance
