Prytherch Received ijth May 1972 INTRODUCTION In company with Douglas Fisher (professional photographer) and Donaldo Maclver (interpreter) we camped at Point Tombo, Chubut Province, Argentina, from 13th to 19th November 1971. Our primary purpose was to film the wildlife for BBC television, but some ornithological observations were made and are set out in this paper. Point Tombo is a thin promontory which juts north-eastwards into the South Atlantic Ocean at approximately 44 ° 00' S and 65 ° 20' W. It is about 3 • 1 km long by o-6 km wide at its widest (see figure and plate 1). The pro- montory is a rock outcrop covered with a layer of sand and shingle. The rock slopes up from the north-west shore to produce rugged cliffs up to about 118.
