Shag. They look black but are really green. The white in the background is Razorbill and Guillimot crap running down the rocks. My lens got shit on, I got shit on and all for a bird picture.

Great shot! Tough to get a good close up shot of a cormorant like that. Sorry about the bird doodoo...but hey, kind of a fact of the birders life, eh? ;P Gotta happen sometime sooner or later...

Go, go Puffin! Great shot...especially of these birds...they seem to have been having a really tough time the last couple of years, with huge numbers of them washing up on shores dead. Very sad...no one seems to know why yet, but it started last year, and continued on into this year. Hope it stops before they are gone...

Saw him/her get the kill, but my shots of that were a little blurry because it happened so fast. But got the 'portrait' afterwards.

I love your first picture of the Atlantic Puffin at the top.

Very nice shots Guy.

Very nice. And, yeah, if this BIF stuff was done with film, I'd be broke by now
So many shots, so many misses.

Guy,
Your puffin photos are getting better and better with each post! Wonder how wonderful it would be with the next sets. Keep coming with new images.

Beautiful images GuyF.

Mr Bean,
I remember film days. I count my shots. Not really firing like a "Vulcan rotary gun", where you spray and prey. Glad shooting 1s and 0s cost minimally, except the initial cost of the kit AND time to play.
Hope you like the hummies.
