Falling Razorbill

Cliff with 4 razorbills. One of them is landing on the edge of it, wings spread out and with a dramatic expression, making it seem as if he's falling off the cliff. Two of the other razorbills are looking at him with their beaks open, as if they're laughing.

Hornøya, Norway

Razorbills (Alca torda) at Hornøya.

The razorbill on the left is actually just making a landing. But the postures and facial expressions of all of them made it seem as if he clumsely fell off the cliff while his friends were laughing at him.
