Observation details

Small dark storm-petrels w/ white rumps and dark body. Shallow tail fork. Fluttering just above the waves. Appearance similar to a Leach's. Seen to the left (north) side of the jetty. Update: After helpful discussions w/ the eBird reviewer, the larger extent of the white on the rump and rather shallow tail fork (not deep enough for a Leach's) seems to indicate Band-rumped.
