European Shag (Phalacrocorax aristotelis)











The European Shag nests every year in extremely large numbers on the Farne Islands. I couldn't resist putting two photos up for this bird. The first is of what seems a nice family unit on Inner Farne. The second, a beautiful profile taken on Lindisfarne.
