Manx Shearwater

Puffinus puffinus

Terrible photo as they are rather far away and not helped by my having the wrong ISO setting but, excuse me. MANX FLIPPING SHEARWATERS!

Am extremely pleased because I have never seen any of these before. They were very cool, flipping from side to side and showing their black tops and white undersides alternately. I could hardly believe my eyes when I looked out and saw them flipping about.

They are an oceanic species and only come onshore to breed.
