I'm still researching sooty shearwaters in New Zealand. We're not tagging sooty shearwaters now, although I hope to again soonI also want to track birds from Chile to see how the South American population overlaps with New Zealand birds. I know of another group of researchers who are studying sooty shearwaters in the Falkland Islands but they're using archival tags. For the first study in January 2005, we used archival tags, which record but do not transmit data, so no location data were transmitted in real time. We had to recapture our birds after a year at sea to recover the data. We did, however, conduct one season of satellite tracking in 2004, in collaboration with Josh Adams of the U.S. Geological Survey. He caught shearwaters in Monterey Bay and attached satellite tags. To do more tagging projects like this, we need more funding. I'm working on another paper that shows in more detail where the birds go and what they are doing -- diving, landing on the sea surface -- in New Zealand waters. We also tracked the shearwaters in 2006 and have more unpublished data on their migrations.
