Abstract
Summary Summerhayes, C. P. 1976. Seabird observations between Dakar and Cape Town, December 1973—January 1974. Ostrich 47:55-58. En route between Dakar and Cape Town, during the southern summer of 1973–1974, the greatest number of species and generally the largest numbers of seabirds were seen over the productive upwelled waters of the Benguela Current off Southern Africa. The numbers of seabirds seen at this time was less than during the winter months off southern Africa. These observations tend to confirm that the movements of migrant species are concentrated in the Benguela Current region within about 200 km of the coast, rather than over the open ocean.
