N2  - Food from stomachs of 396 short-tailed shearwaters collected at three colonies was analysed. The main food items found were the euphausiid Nyctiphanes australis, and arrow squid Notodarus sloani gouldi, with fish, other crustaceans and squids forming a minor part of the diet. Plastic particles were common particularly at the beginning of the breeding season but gradually decreased in frequency as the season progressed.
