A Cape Petrel (Daption capense, center) and a Southern Royal Albatross (Diomedea epomophora,) quarrel in the open sea off the coast of Kaikoura (New Zealand), while a Southern Giant Petrel (Macronectes giganteus, left) looks on. The Southern Royal Albatross' plumage is mostly white but darkens on the upper wings close to the bird's body. Unlike the Southern Royal Albatross whose numbers are in the tens of thousands, Cape Petrels have a large global population estimated to be around two million individuals.
