Northern fulmar

The northern fulmar (Fulmarus glacialis), also called the Arctic fulmar, is an abundant seabird of the subarctic North Atlantic and North Pacific, with a single confirmed sighting south of New Zealand. Though it resembles a gull, it belongs to the family Procellariidae alongside petrels and shearwaters, sharing traits such as tubed nostrils called naricorns, a bill split into plates, stomach oil production and a salt gland above the nasal passage. It occurs in a light color morph with a white head and body in temperate populations and a darker uniformly grey morph in arctic populations, with intermediates common, and is assessed as Least Concern, with a global population estimated at 15 to 30 million mature individuals.
