Observation details
Spotted in distance by Michael after we left the flock. It was pretty far, but since it is rare got out the camera and I think I got some potentially identifiable photos. The bird was a black/white petrel with long thin wings and a pretty slow flight. The bird was dark above, had a dark hood and underwings with a white stomach. The pattern was reminiscent of an alcid like a Dovekie or a murre. The bird is flying left in all pictures except for the top middle picture.
