Dispersive. Pre-moult period at sea 60-70 days; birds remain at sea from Mar to Jun/Jul, after completion of
moult and before start of subsequent breeding season. Regularly occurs off SE Australia and Tasmania; most
records away from breeding grounds refer to moulting juveniles. (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J
