Description

Nest/burrow under large pohtukawa root. Approx. 20 metres from creek. White egg shell at entrance. Under canopy of large pohutukawa, puriri and kauri. Seen and retreated due to not wanting to disturb anything. Most probably a Cook's petrel due to having sound recording confirmed as so in area a few weeks later.
