Kay's Gallery:   Antarctic Prion (1/2)

PROCELLARIIFORMES: Procellariidae

Pachyptila desolata  

These dainty little whale birds skip along the water and are very difficult to identify as they are extremely similar to Slender-billed Prion.

We watched the bird and photographed taking note of the photo number. After consultation with each other at the time and comparing notes we worked our way through the prions on this trip.
