Hi Neil, it is a Slender-billed Prion. Narrow bill with long distance
between maxillary unguis and nostrils, tiny amount of black at tip of
uppertail, long narrow strip of black on undertail coverts and undertail are
typical characters. If these winter storms continue you should find many
more as well as Antarctic, Salvin's and Fairy Prions.
