Population size and trends of seabirds breeding on Gull and Great Islands, Witless Bay Islands Ecological Reserve, Newfoundland up to 2003 / Gregory J. Robertson, Sabina I. Wilhelm and Paul A. Taylor. : CW69-5/418E-PDF
"The Witless Bay Islands Ecological Reserve, in south-eastern Newfoundland, supports large and diverse populations of breeding seabirds, including internationally important numbers of Atlantic Puffins (Fratercula arctica), Common Murres (Uria aalge) and Leach's Storm-Petrels (Oceanodroma leucorhoa). During the summers of 1999 to 2003, breeding populations of five seabird species, namely Common Murres, Razorbills (Alca torda), Atlantic Puffins, Black-legged Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) and Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis), were surveyed on Gull and Great Island in the reserve. Common Murres were surveyed by counting adults on breeding areas from boats, and an estimate of the number of breeding pairs was derived using a correction factor obtained from a detailed study plot on Great Island"--Summary.
