Evening of the first day at Broughton
The
Mutton Bird Incidents
That night there were some very strange incidents of mutton birds flying into boats . We thought that something had fallen on our canopy . The following are some extracts of those reports .
Ruby - Mutton bird crash landing on our deck ! ����� Heavens Gate - We just had a big bang on our roof but nothing there . Elysium - We have just had impact on our rigging as well . Nothing to see after an inspection . Ruby - Geoff saw it on the deck and then it fell over the side before we could do anything !
Boree Creek - We had a mutton bird in our saloon at 2am . Monica was very brave . She picked it up and put it outside .
