Hi All,
I would say this is a White-headed Petrel.

> Hi all
> I was explaining to some of my work colleagues what sort of birds I see when
> I'm out on pelagic trips earlier this week, using images from google as an
> illustration of albatrosses, petrels & storm petrels etc and I came across
> this web page via google images: http://www.eol.org/pages/1049282
> While I know that this is not a White Bellied Storm Petrel, what is it? - I
> think it is either a pale phase Soft Plumaged Petrel (my preference) or a
> pale phase Kermadec Petrel, but I've never seen either myself, so am running
> off the illustrations in Pizzey and Onley & Schofield. As the latter covers
> world species, hopefully I have narrowed it down and haven't missed
> something from elsewhere in the world?
> When (if?) there's a consent on ID, I'll send them a comment.
> Cheers
