| Résumé : | A Fea's Petrel Pterodroma feae gave prolonged views to several hundred birders from the MV Scillonian III on an annual pelagic trip in August 2001. This well-documented record was for a short time the first accepted record of this species in Britain. However, an individual preceding it by 35 days was subsequently accepted as the first British record. The following article describes the circumstances surrounding this exciting find and explains the features which allowed the bird to be identified as a Fea's Petrel. |
