Shearwater Galapagos (Puffinus subalaris) adult feeding, near endemic – Mexico

We had to take a small motor boat several miles off shore to spot this Galapagos Shearwater along with Least Storm Petrel and Pink-footed Shearwater and Black Storm Petrel.  Taking this photo in a rough sea and moving motor boat was quite a challenge.
