обыкновенный буревестник

A medium-sized seabird of the North Atlantic and North Pacific, Manx shearwaters are renowned for their extraordinary navigation abilities. They travel up to 1 million kilometers over a lifetime, migrating annually between breeding colonies on North Atlantic islands and wintering grounds off South America. Their stiff-winged shearing flight just above wave surfaces is characteristic. One individual lived for over 55 years, one of the longest-lived wild birds recorded.
