20100731 - 2 151 Black Guillemot SERRIES.jpg

Bird Island, Cape Breton

Two images of Black Guillemots. These are also a first for me, although I previously posted an out of focus flight image of one, along with a Puffin shot, also taken on this trip. All images taken at Bird Island were taken, hand-held, from the back of a small tour boat.

Very nice captures, Hank. I imagine they were at some distance in the last shot, but you still got very good details.

Great captures by themselves but even more spectacular when hand-held, from the back of a small tour boat. !
