This overstuffed sooty shearwater crash-landed on the beach (note sandy bill!) while I was photographing the feeding frenzy. It vomited 2-3 anchovies - see lovely photo of this - either out of 'what-just-happened' shock at landing on the beach, or perhaps to lighten the load for take-off, and managed to rejoin its 25,000 buddies in the surf break.
