Abundance and distribution of common murres breeding at Funk Island, Newfoundland in 1972 and 2000 / John W. Chardine ... [et al.].: CW69-5/404E-PDF
"The area and size (number of pairs) of the Common Murre colony on Funk Island, Newfoundland were estimated from aerial photographs taken on 19 June 1972 and 15 July 2000. The overall colony structure has remained roughly the same between years with birds breeding in three subcolonies along the central spine of the island: Southwest, Central and Indian Gulch. However, changes in distribution were apparent between the two years with murre breeding areas shrinking around the expanding Northern Gannet colony in Southwest, and increasing in the southern portion of Southwest, at the east end of Central, and in Indian Gulch"--Summary.
