JOURNAL OF THE ONTARIO FIELD ORNITHOLOGISTS Yellow-nosed Albatross
Bibliographic record
Abstract
plumaged Thalassarche albatross was observed by Paul Martin (PRM) and his two-year old son, Sean Thomas Martin. The bird was flying low over MacDon-ald Memorial Park at the Kingston Gen-eral Hospital helicopter pad and nearby smoke stack on the northeast shore of Lake Ontario at Kingston, Frontenac Co. The albatross was at the lakeshore, but flew over land the entire time observed, flying over a parking lot; sun bathers and dog walkers. The bird was as low as-- 10m above the ground and very close to the walking trail along the water's edge. The bird passed back and forth three times, sometimes with Ring-billed Gulls (Larus delawarensis) in pur-suit. The bird was last seen circling upward above the smoke stack drifting eastward. Conditions were breezy but sunny with temperatures 23.3-24.3°C (humi-58 Ontario Birds August 2011 dex 29- 30°C), relative humidity 68-710/0, atmospheric pressure 100.33-100.36 kPa, and winds from the south-southwest (190 degrees) at 17- 20 kIn/hr (Environment Canada 2010). Earlier in the day, wind had been more out of the west (210- 260 degrees) (Environment Canada 2010). At the time of observation, the sky was mainly clear, the lighting conditions were excel-lent, with the sun slightly behind the observers. While the conditions were good for observation, PRM had no binoculars or camera, making detailed observations of plumage and bare part colouration difficult. The bird was observed for about five minutes in total as close as-- 15 m. Below are observations summarized from PRM's notes from 4 July. The bird was predominantly immac-ulate white, with contrasting black on the wings. The upper side of the wings and back were uniform black. The black on the upper side of the wings extended across the entire wings, including the secondaries and primar-ies, without any white visible on the upper side. The undersides of the wings were striking, with an even-coloured and fairly even width black patch on the leading edge of the wing,

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
