Hi,



Some more updates to my web site have recently been posted. Featured are a
selection of pelagic bird shots by Mike Yip from the west coast of Vancouver
Island BC. These can be accessed from the links below, or from
www.birdinfo.com/recentpostings.html



My favorite of the bunch is a shot of a clumsy Black-footed Albatross atop a
Laysan Albatross (apparently not a mating attempt, just a clutzy action).
See www.birdinfo.com/A_Images_L/LaysanAlbatross_0005.html



Coming soon will be an article on Red-necked Stint identification by Rick
Toochin.
