A common seabird off the Atlantic Coast, seldom coming close to shore except during storms. The Great Shearwater often forages in flocks. Commonly feeds around fishing boats, fighting over scraps and offal, seemingly fearless of humans. Although Great Shearwaters are often very numerous in North American waters, they nest only on a few islands in the South Atlantic.
