	Facts about topic: (Seabird) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		Seabirds are bird (Warm-blooded egg-laying vertebrates characterized by feathers and forelimbs modified as wings) s that spend much of their lives, outside the breeding season at least, at sea.
		Another seabird family that does not land while feeding is the skimmer, which has a unique method; skimmers fly along the surface with the lower mandible in the water, this shuts automatically when the bill touches something in the water.
		Whilst the defentition of seabirds suggests that the birds in question spend their lives on the ocean (A large body of water constituting a principal part of the hydrosphere), many seabird families have many species that spend some or even most of their lives inland away from the sea.

		Seabirds, by virtue of living in a geologically depositional environment (that is, in the sea where sediments are readily laid down) are well represented in the fossil record.

	Encyclopedia article on Seabird [EncycloZine] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		There have been claims of prey-depletion by seabirds of fishery stocks, and while there is some small evidence of this, the effects of seabirds are considered smaller than that of marine mammals and predatory fish (like tuna).
		Fisheries aslo have negative effects on seabirds, and these effects, particularly on the long lived and slow breeding albatross are a source of increasing concern to conservationists.
		The by-catch of seabirds entangled in nets or hooked on fishing lines has had a big impact on seabird numbers, for example an estimated 44,000 albatross are hooked each year on tuna lines set out by Japanese fleets.

	Seabird (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
