“…The Great Shearwater is not the only member of its group in which fruitless egglaying occurs. Warham (1960) reports a similar situation in some of the more densely populated rookeries of P. tenuirostris on islands in the Bass Straits. I n this species, however, the proportion of burrowless birds (an estimated 1,150 surface eggs in a Cat Island colony of about 250,000 breeding pairs) seems to be rather lower than in P .…”

“…Fairly complete information has been assembled by Warham (1955Warham ( , 1956Warham ( , 1958Warham ( , 1960Warham ( , 1962 for several species, namely the Giant Petrel Macronectes giganteus, the Great-winged Petrel Pterodroma macroplerus, the Little Shearwater Puflnus assirnilis, the Fleshy-footed Shearwater P. carneipes, the Manx Shearwater P. pujinus, and the Short-tailed Shearwater P. tenuirostris. In the Giant Petrel, which has open nest sites, the birds perform sideways-throwing before egg-laying, and sideways-building during incubation, the amount of material used depending on the vegetation around the nest.…”

“…In the early stages and during incubation birds may visit the nest and then sit outside it. At such times sideways-building may occur and the entrance to the burrow may become partly blocked with a " collar " of plant material (Warham 1956(Warham , 1958(Warham , 1960. During the constant passage of the birds this is gradually moved down the tunnel, possibly by sideways-building on the part of adults moving up the tunnel, until it reaches the nest-chamber.…”
