This note provides information on land-birds of three small islands off the west coast of Eyre Peninsula: Lilliput Island near Smoky Bay, Nicolas Baudin Island near Sceale Bay and West Waldegrave Island near Elliston. These islands have important colonies of the Australian Sea-lion Neophoca cinerea and were visited primarily to monitor breeding activity and outcomes for that species. Information on land-birds recorded during visits to the islands reported here supplements that on seabirds presented in Corella by Shaughnessy (2007), Shaughnessy and Dennis (2007) and Shaughnessy et al. (2008).
