| Abstract |
A Flesh-footed Shearwater Puffinus carneipes and a White-faced Storm Petrel Pelagodroma marina were caught, measured and ringed at Dyer Island, South Africa, in September and October 2001, respectively. The Flesh-footed Shearwater was the second record on land for Dyer Island, and the first to be ringed in southern Africa. The White-faced Storm Petrel was the fourth record for South Africa, the three earlier observations being sight records. |
