Hi Ross, nice shots! In the first posted image with the Great Shearwater, at the 12 o’clock position, there is a different all dark bird. It could be the dark skua we had but the size looks odd and out of proportion against the petrels. I think it needs to be blown up a bit more to ID it, but can only be done with your original image? Regards. Steve.
