Birds on ships

We are interested in any observations from vessels or rigs of bird species which are not usually at home on the open sea, including migrants, freshwater birds, raptors and others.

We are also interested in seabirds that landed on vessels without wanting to be there, such as nocturnal petrels attracted to lights at night.

If you have information on how long the bird stayed on the vessel, and the locations where first and last seen (or where seen landing on or leaving the vessel), please record in the Notes. less ↑
