EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a bird's-eye view! These Brunnichs Guillemots are living life on the edge, quite literally. Perched on coastal cliff ledges in Alkefjellet, Spitsbergen, these adults in their striking breeding plumage create an awe-inspiring sight. It's like they're having a high-level meeting with the best oceanic backdrop you could imagine. With their sleek bodies and distinctive beaks, these guillemots are true masters of the sea. They've formed a tight-knit group, showcasing their unity and strength as they prepare for nesting season. It's no wonder they're often referred to as "murres" because this gathering looks more like a rock concert than your typical bird colony! This photo captures not only the beauty of nature but also highlights the incredible diversity found within our avian friends. From Europe to Eurasia and even North America, these Brunnichs Guillemots have made themselves at home across continents. As summer blankets this arctic paradise with warmth, it seems that even thick-billed birds can't resist its allure. So next time you find yourself near Svalbard or any coastal region for that matter, keep an eye out for these charismatic seabirds perched on cliffs – it'll surely make your day soar!
