Kittiwake Gull

Kittiwake Gull - Upon completing my REI group adventure, I ventured solo by car to tour the Westfjords for birds and photography. First I traveled to a region called Vesturland, to the peninsula on the south side of the bay Breiðavafjörður. Here I circumnavigated the peninsula on routes 54 and 574 and 57 stopping along the way at Arnarstapi to view interesting rock formations and birds. On the cliffs were a breeding colony of Kittiwake Gulls. This photo shows parent, chick, and non-surviving sibling.
