    Maybe a silly question, but is this one missing some feathers? The tail looks a bit sparse. Posted 5 years ago

        Oh, haha! My mind automatically assumes disease, but moulting makes much more sense ;P. Thanks :). Posted 5 years ago

The Northern fulmar

The northern fulmar is a highly abundant sea bird found primarily in subarctic regions of the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans. Fulmars come in one of two color morphs: a light one, with white head and body and gray wings and tail, and a dark one which is uniformly gray.
