Observation details
An alternate plumage individual seen as it flew fairly close to shore. A solitary small, compact, all dark alcid with a highly contrasting red-orange bill and striking pale white iris. Upperparts blackish, underparts sooty colored. Darker "hood" with paler belly and undertail coverts (still much darker than the whitish underparts of a Parakeet Auklet). Paler underwing linings. I did not observe a crest on this individual.
