The Guillemot Uria aalge is an auk, a cousin of the puffin. They are very marine birds, and nest on coastal cliffs in the UK. I mainly saw them when at sea in the days when I worked in Marine Fisheries reasearch. This is the variety known as the Bridled Guillemot because of the white streak behind its eye and I photographed this from a research trawler back in April 1971
