Comment | Immature Shy Albatross Scientific Name = Thalassarche cauta Wingspan = 2 - 2.6m Conservation Status = Vulnerable This species was misidentified as Black-browed Albatross x2, Salvin’s Albatross x2, Southern Giant Petrel x1, Buller’s Albatross x1 This immature Shy Albatross caused quite a bit of confusion in this Challenge! The difference between an immature Black-browed Albatross (BBA) and the Shy Albatross (SHA) is the underwing. BBAs have quite a dark underwing and SHAs have a white underwing with black margins. The difference between an immature Salvin’s and a Shy is the face. It is always grey, never white. The difference between a Southern Giant-petrel and a Shy Albatross is the tube-nose. The difference between an immature Buller’s and a Shy is the olive-coloured beak. | ||||||||||||||||||
