I was treated to a quick fly-by of a Chathams Molly this morning whilst on a fishing Competition off Gisborne. There were good numbers of Salvin's and White-capped Albatrosses,cape petrels,Buller's Shearwaters and Grey-faced petrels. Mixed in with flesh-footed shearwaters were Westland/Black Petrels.There were a few white-fronted terns, and gannets
