Observation details

The two right hand birds in this photo by Tara McIntire. Smaller, and slimmer-winged than the Sooty Shearwater in the same photo, Wings more banana-shaped, less angular than Sooty, with dingy, brown wing lining, not silvery-white as in Sooty. Head rounder, bill smaller. I’ve added some versions of same photo after being run through low-light software by Reg.
