Three common guillemots (uria aalge) posing in front of a white snowed in mountain, with more murres/guillemots flying in the background. It almost looks peaceful, except in the foreground a european shag (type of cormorant) is crash landing into the snow, in the most dramatic way possible.
Portrait of a young european shag, looking directly at the camera. Its body feathers still have a brown-ish color, the patch on the chin is white, and the beak is yellow and black.
