Nature: Miscellaneous Birds

Grouse

Sitting waiting for hares to pass by I spotted this lone red grouse walking across the snow in the distance. Minimalist, but I'm a sucker for images like this!

Pair of Razorbills

These are wonderful birds, I like them almost as much as puffins! They are always so affectionate to their partner, it's lovely to watch. Photographed on Lunga, July 2018

Razorbill, Lunga

Guillemot, Lunga

Lots of guillemots on Lunga, beautiful birds.

Kittiwake, Lunga

Plenty of nesting kittiwakes to be seen (and heard!) on Lunga, my favourite member of the gull family.

Black Guillemot, Oban

In July the black guillemots are nesting in the harbour walls in Oban so quite easy to find and photography. Love their red mouths and feet.
