No worries, I really wasn't sure what the birds could be so I appreciate the effort to identify them!

Honestly Ben, that was my first impression, however I went off of your observation re size and colour. I know the Tassie moderator fairly well, and he knows his seabirds so we’ll go with that. I’ll leave it as Kelp Gull for now, but let me know if you’d prefer that I left it inconclusive due to the distance.
