Seabird

Been wondering what these birds are I saw from the sydney coast at end of July.  Doubt its possible to come up with a definite id from these photos ... my best guess from the bird book is Huttons Shearwater, based largely on the pattern of the white and greys under the wing.  Thanks for any help.

looks good for Huttons Shearwater but I am not a pelagic expert

I favour Fluttering Sheartwater, but I'm no pelagic seabird expert either.

 I agree with Hutton's Shearwater
