…expect to see the supporting act before the main event and I make no exception in this case and I’m pleased I did as there would be too many images for one Blog. I thought I was going to be late to the party at South Gare but I needn’t have worried because the main event was still there when my wife and I arrived. (more in my next Blog). As I said there was a canny supporting cast (often too far away for decent images) including…
Pale Arctic Skua.
Another pale Arctic Skua.
Intermediate Arctic Skua.
And I think a juvenile Arctic Skua.
Another juvenile.
The Skuas would not leave the Terns alone they were
chasing them everywhere.
Sandwich Tern doing what comes naturally (if I was
being chased by a Skua I would be doing the same).
Another Sandwich Tern in fact I saw quite a few of
these.
However, I only saw one Common Tern.
Looking at its shape in flight I think this image and
the next one are of a Red-Throated Diver. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Cormorant coming into land.
Drying its wings after it had landed.
Razorbill.
Oystercatcher.
