This evening we caught about 70 more petrels for measuring and banding. They come in at sunset, so one minute you see a couple. The next minute you see about 50, and the next minute you see thousands flying above. About 7 to 9 is the time when they are coming down to land, so that's when we catch them with a mist net.

That's hilarious! Probably not so much for the chick though.
