Sex, Age, Comment | Bright bird. The underside is here exaggerated bright because of overexposure, but generally it white on the underside, with dark remiges and a narrow dark front edge to the underwing. The undertail is dusky to a varying degree, which the species shares with Pink-footed and Black-vented Shearwaters. Latter, however, pertains to the small shearwaters, and would appear more compact in flight than here. The long tail is diagnostic for Wedge-tailed. | ||||||||||||
