I'm told its very rare to see some of these sea birds close to land. In that context this Brown Booby who is a regular to the Panadura beach is a special one. It has got used to the fisherman giving him fish and has become a regular visitor when it gets hungry. My 1st proper sea bird on the catalogue.
