First day in the office since returning from field work. The state of my inbox:

@tpoisot oh

On the way home. Brief layover in a Singapore. Field season thoughts after I've slept.

Today our beautiful, broken #AdriftLab team removed >400 #plastics from one baby #seabird and >50g from another. It’s been rough (!), proud of how we’ve rallied around one another 💔🐦♻️

236 pieces of plastic from one Flesh-footed Shearwater chick found dead in the colony on Lord Howe Island. Sadly, not the record. #LHIadventure

Today #AdriftLab found a #shearwater entangled in recreational fishing gear (line & hook visible in the top left corner). The line caused serious injury to the wing, leg and foot. We’re sad to say, the bird is no longer alive. Please fish much more carefully and responsibly, what you leave behind causes great suffering and ends the lives of others who are innocent and don’t have a voice

Cloudy and moody morning skies before a rather rainy day #LHIadventure

Good morning from Ned's Beach #LHIadventure

It's always lovely to head up to the colony at Clear Place, through the Valley of Shadows. Especially with the dappled sunlight in the afternoon! #LHIadventure

What a magical day with friends, #mountains, stunning ocean 🌊 , and thousands of #seabirds overhead! #LordHoweIsland #ProvidencePetrels @TheLabAndField @SeabirdSentinel

It's ever so nice to be back #LHIadventure

It's lovely to be back to Lord Howe Island, watching the woodhens scratch about, hearing the white terns cackle, and having adult shearwaters fly into your face at night. #LHIadventure

Good morning Sydney!

Oh hey! 🦘
