All surveys were carried out along strip-band transects (Figure 1) from the survey vessel Halcyon Days (Figure 2), where a pair of surveyors were observing from an elevated platform. Survey methods comply with the guidelines of Camphuysen et al. (2004). Data includes monthly reports, summary report and raw data.

A hand-held GPS with sub-five metre accuracy was switched on at the surveyors’ position for the duration of the survey which recorded position four times every minute and was synchronised to the surveyors’ time pieces. At the end of each survey the GPS was downloaded and the coordinates matched by time to records of birds to provide a position for each sighting. Surveyors recorded bird species where possible but were identified as accurately as possible (e.g. ‘tern sp.’) when birds were distant or in poor light. Other records taken included; time of observation, number of individuals, age class, distance from vessel, flight direction and height where appropriate and behaviour including association with vessels or offshore platforms. Surveys were carried out in May, July, August and September 2010. Any cetaceans or seals observed during the surveys were also recorded.
