I’m used to seeing Black Guillemot in full breeding dress during our visit to Mull each year. They tend to stay north and west; rarely visiting the South East coasts. Not so this little chap. He spent a week or more just further out than the surf at Cley-next-the-sea in August and was sporting his casual dress.
It was quite amusing to see a whole bank of photographers overlooking the swimsuited masses on the warm bank holiday.
That’s why he looks so lost – he doesn’t know his north-west from his south-east.

Carl – in case you are unaware, there is a natural history auction at Keys on Thursday and they have some wonderful bird art etc in their catalogue. Thought you might be interested.

Thanks John – yes I’d been alerted to it already but thanks for thinking of me.
