Peek-a-boo! This Black Guillemot knows how to make a grand entrance!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the playful curiosity of a Black Guillemot as it peeks out from a drainage hole in the harbour wall of Oban, Argyll. With its striking breeding plumage on full display, this seabird stands out against the rugged coastal backdrop. As if posing for a bird paparazzi, our feathered friend seems to be saying, "Catch me if you can!". Its mischievous gaze and charming expression add an element of fun and intrigue to this already picturesque scene. Oban's Atlantic bay provides the perfect setting for these charismatic creatures to showcase their acrobatic skills. The guillemots' agile nature is evident as they navigate through the maze-like drainages along the coast. This snapshot captures not only the beauty of European wildlife but also reminds us that even in unexpected places like drainage holes, nature finds a way to thrive. It serves as a reminder that there is always something extraordinary waiting just around the corner – or in this case, behind a wall! So next time you find yourself exploring Oban's enchanting coastline, keep an eye out for these delightful birds popping up unexpectedly. Who knows what other surprises await within those hidden nooks and crannies?
