To the Beauty of the Galapagos

The Storm Petrel is the smallest of the sea birds. The variant shown here is the White-vented or Elliot's Storm Petrel. While the population around the Galapagos has been estimated at many thousands a nest has yet to be found on land.

This small, rapidly darting bird is very difficult to photograph and keep in focus. The photos shown here are the best of many dozens.
