Talk:Sooty shearwater

Longest annual migration
I don't have the time for it but someone should include facts from this article as it explains the muttonbird has the longest migratory path of any bird. Supposedly 46,000 miles. Jack 20:13, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

daily maximum distance traveled.
According to his article, it's 350 km per day and not 910 as stated in the BBC article. I'll try to find other information. http://news.scotsman.com/scitech.cfm?id=1835952006 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bigmak (talk • contribs) 13:05, 11 December 2006 (UTC).

Ok, found the original report and it clearly states 350 km. I'm going to edit the front page to reflect this and I'll change the footnote to point to this article. http://www.coml.org/medres/highlights2006/CoML_Highlights_2006_News_Release_Public.pdf

I realized that the main article said "up to 910 km"... I tried to find evidence to support that but I couldn't so I made the edit to the established "average of 350 km".

Wingspan
What does it mean that the wingspan is 94-19cm? Is this a typo or is this a common way to specify wingspans? In the latter case it should be expalined somewhere. --46.115.69.221 (talk) 05:47, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It appears to be a typo. I've restored it to the previous range of 94-100 cm.- gadfium 06:00, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
