Observation details
10 photographed birds presumed Common based on heavy bills. These birds were in varying stages of primary molt, from all worn primaries to replaced inner 2-3 primaries. Birds with more retained worn body plumage seemed to show bolder scapular lines and paler head markings, creating a plumage pattern approaching "textbook" South Georgia. Underwings varied from obviously gray to fairly whitish, though underwing shade surprisingly difficult to assess.
