This protocol proposal is aimed at standardize the monitoring techniques for the Mediterranean colonies of shearwaters and provide a guideline of good practice concerning field study of this species. This document outlines the essential information needed for such activities, and also the basic security rules having to be followed to avoid accident on the field and to limit disturbance caused by observers.
