25/08/09 | Arctic Skua | Queen Mother Reservoir | 1 | M J McKee |
06:33 | Distant and silhouetted flying high ESE over the NE corner of the reservoir. I managed to get a few shots which I've uploaded. The bird's structure, long bill and long tail seem to indicate an adult Arctic Skua. Despite the light conditions I think this bird is a dark morph as I would have thought I would have been able to see white underparts if they were present. Any comments welcome. Key holders only. |
