    I guess the fulmars are used to this sort of thing, but it does look pretty chilly to be out there on the cliffside!

    Wow, this is wonderful. It took me a minute to find the birds. I like that their heads are turned slightly when you took the photo; otherwise I'm not sure I could have picked them out.

    Took a while to spot them as they blended in so well. Great Eye and Shot 😊...

    They are in their natural habitat, even though harsh, it's home. Great shot.
