My husband managed to get some great shots of this shearwater while our ship was sailing up the Pacific coast between Costa Rica and southern Mexico. There were quite a few that would come close into the ship to catch the flying fish that were flying off along the ship's bow wave.
Anyway, we think it's a Wedge-tailed, perhaps a juvenile and would really appreciate a confirmation from someone with experience of pelagics. Thanks. I've included a shot to show that it was white below.
