Entirely dark sooty brown with a forked tail and white rump largely hidden. Long-distance migrant crossing two oceans. Planktivore; poorly studied due to nocturnal, crevice-nesting habits.

European Storm-petrel, 14–18 cm, wingspan 36–39 cm, is the smallest seabird in European waters, breeding in burrows and rock crevices on Atlantic islands from Iceland to the Mediterranean. Entirely sooty black with white rump. Strictly nocturnal at colonies. Planktivore; patters over wave surface picking up oil and plankton.
