Band-rumped Storm-Petrel

Gulf Stream pelagic off Hatteras; NC

I had a hard time getting shots of Storm-Petrels other than Wilson's. Though it isn't clear, the long wing with a weak carpal bar not extending to the front edge and some white coming down below the rump mark this as a Band-rumped.

We saw several of these birds, but they didn't come in for photos much.
