Perched on the rugged coast of Northumberland, England, this shag showcases its stunning features against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. Its sleek black feathers glisten under the summer sun while its piercing yellow eyes captivate anyone who gazes upon them. With an impressive beak that could rival any supermodel's pout, this avian beauty is truly a sight to behold. Its bill perfectly adapted for diving into the depths of the sea in search of tasty fishy treats.
