About These Birds
Northern Fulmar
The northern fulmar is a long-lived seabird that can survive over 40 years. It defends its nest by projectile-vomiting a foul-smelling stomach oil at intruders, which can mat the feathers of predators and cause fatal loss of waterproofing. Fulmars have expanded their breeding range dramatically southward over the past two centuries.
Masatierra Petrel
26–28 cm. Small; pale grey above with dark M-mark; white underparts with partial dark collar. Breeds Juan Fernandez and Desventuradas islands off Chile. Vulnerable; small range. Ranges in subtropical southeast Pacific; closely related to Cook's and Pycroft's petrels.
