The Wrong Petrel in Newsletter

Yesterday, I sent a newsletter about the bird fair. On the photo it was a Petrel that I referenced as Zino’s Petrel, in fact was a Pterodroma feae from Desertas Islands. It was a test to see how many of you birdwatchers out there would get it right and immediately pointed that to us. After 24 hours only one got it right of roughly fourteen thousand. Soon we will post pictures of Zino’s Petrels in our website. And sorry if I cause any embarrassment, though next year you can join us on quest for Zino’s Petrels.
