EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about living life on the edge! This daring Common Guillemot has found the ultimate nesting spot near the Fuglefjellet cliffs in Bear Island, Norway. Perched a whopping 411 meters above the Barents Sea, this seabird is truly embracing the high life! With its sleek black and white feathers, this North Atlantic Ocean resident knows how to make a stylish statement. Known as Uria aalge in scientific terms, it's no wonder why these birds are often referred to as 'common murres' or 'guillemots'. They may be common in name, but their choice of real estate is anything but ordinary. As if balancing on narrow ledges wasn't enough of an adventure, these fearless flyers also have to contend with gusty winds and crashing waves below. But hey, when you're aiming for new heights (literally), there's no room for fear! While North America might know them by another name, we can all agree that this avian acrobat deserves some serious applause. So next time you're feeling down about your own daily challenges, just remember: if a Common Guillemot can conquer towering cliffs and rough seas with style and grace, then surely you can handle whatever comes your way!
