Black Guillemots Nesting on the Edge of a Norwegian Cliff This photograph showcases a group of Black Guillemots, also known as Tysties, nesting on the edge of a rocky cliff in Lauvsnes, Flatanger, Norway. The Black Guillemots, scientifically known as Cepphus grylle, are distinctive sea birds with black plumage and white underparts, and their bright red eyes add a striking contrast to their dark bodies. Black Guillemots are well adapted to life in the harsh marine environment. They are excellent swimmers and divers, able to plunge into the water from great heights to catch fish for their young. In this image, we see them nesting in close proximity to each other on the narrow edge of the cliff, providing a sense of community and safety. The rugged cliffs and rock formations of Norway's coastline offer the perfect nesting sites for these birds. The steep, rocky ledges provide protection from predators and the elements, making it an ideal location for the Black Guillemots to raise their young. Black Guillemots are a common sight along the coasts of Europe and North America. They are an essential part of the marine ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining a healthy balance within their food chain. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and resilience of nature. It captures the raw power and raw beauty of the Black Guillemots as they go about their daily lives, nesting on the edge of a Norwegian cliff. This image is a must-have for any wildlife enthusiast or bird lover's collection.
