The '''[[Antarctic petrel]]''' is a boldly marked dark brown and white petrel, found in [[Antarctica]], most commonly in the [[Ross Sea|Ross]] and [[Weddell Sea]]s. They eat [[Antarctic krill]], fish, and small squid. They feed while swimming but can dive from both the surface and the air.
The '''[[Principality of Aigues-Mortes]]''' is a [[micronation]] created to promote and support local initiatives of the eponymous city, located in Southern France, 23km east of Montpellier. The Princely Couple (His Serene Highness, Sovereign-Prince Jean-Pierre IV and Her Serene Highness, Princess Olivia-Eugénie) work together with the citizens and the Princely Grand Council, to create and organize events that are both fun and windows of local talents and creativity.


The Antarctic petrel is the only known species in the genus ''Thalassoica'', and is a member of the family Procellariidae, and the Procellariiformes order. Also, this petrel along with the [[snow petrel]], the [[Cape petrel]], both giant petrels, and the two species in the Fulmarus family, are considered to be a separate group from the other Procellariidae members. They share certain identifying features. First, they have nasal passages that attach to the upper bill called naricorns. Although the nostrils on the petrels are on the top of the upper bill. The bills of Procellariiformes are also unique in that they are split into between seven and nine horny plates.
