Quirky Quackers - Brunnichs Guillemot Takes a Splash in Dorset!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by wildlife photographer Steve Young, we witness the comical antics of a Brunnichs Guillemot as it takes an unexpected dip off the coast of Isle of Portland, Dorset. This nonchalant seabird seems to have wandered far from its usual European and Eurasian habitats, making it quite the vagrant visitor! With its striking adult, non-breeding plumage on full display, this thick-billed guillemot stands out against the serene waters of the Atlantic. Its sleek black and white feathers perfectly complement the picturesque coastal backdrop. As our feathered friend gracefully glides through the chilly winter waters, one can't help but wonder what brought this adventurous avian all the way from North America. Perhaps it's searching for new friends or simply exploring uncharted territories – after all, who wouldn't want to experience England's temperate climate? This delightful image serves as a reminder that nature never fails to surprise us with its boundless wonders. So next time you find yourself near Dorset's enchanting coastline, keep an eye out for these charming sea birds – they might just be ready to make another splash!
