Why it matters
Named after the explorer Captain James Cook, this petrel is a masterful oceanic traveler characterized by its pointed tail and long, soaring wings. Collectors and ornithologists prize the species for its remarkable migratory journey, as it breeds on only a few islands in New Zealand before navigating the vast Pacific to reach the waters off North America.
