found a photo from the summer 🌞

A fulmar
Or in german:
Eissturmvogel
what would be translated one to one
ice-storm-bird

The scientific name Fulmarus is derived from the Old Icelandic term "foul maa" for "stinking gull".

They ward off enemies by spitting foul-smelling stomach oil at the attacker.

We're lucky to have a breeding colony of fulmars at our local cliffs in Rottingdean. These wonderful sea birds are petrels and related to the albatross. They resemble gulls, but have stiff wings and tube-noses. They also cackle rather than squawk! Here's a couple of photos I took today when I had a spare half hour with the camera. #fulmar #seabird #Rottingdean #nature #wildlife #BirdsOfMastodon
Eissturmvögel wirken beim Fischen und Spielen auf dem Wasser unbeschwert und fast verspielt. Es ist faszinierend, wie sie die Wellen nutzen, um nach Nahrung zu suchen.

Eissturmvögel sind wahre Langstreckenflieger und verbringen den Großteil ihres Lebens auf offener See. Sie können stundenlang über den Wellen segeln, ohne mit den Flügeln zu schlagen. Ihre Fähigkeit, selbst stärkste Stürme zu meistern, macht sie zu faszinierenden Bewohnern der Nordatlantikküste.
