the black guillemot is a medium-sized seabird distributed throughout arctic regions of the atlantic. they are distinguishable by their feet, bills, and the inside of their mouths, all of which are a bright coral red. there is no visible difference between the sexes. in the summer, this guillemot is almost entirely solid black. in the winter, they display a mottled gray-white pattern, as do juveniles. they feed on fish, crustaceans, eels, and other aquatic food sources. they feed by diving below the surface to snatch their prey and/or collect plant material as food. they nest in rocky crevices and outcroppings of cliffs. the guillemot is a social bird and is often found in large colonies.

A leap of faith

‘A guillemot chick, watched by its father, leaps into the water from one of the Farne Islands off the Northumberland coast. This photo was taken on 22 June 2023.’

14th April 2023: Aberdeenshire

Photos taken in this set: 1. Razorbills, Guillemots and Kittiwake in a wonderful seabird nesting colony fix right at the end of the Heatherlea Spring Into Scotland tour at Troup Head one of favourite places to be with some of the species I love best and captivate me the most. 2. Konik ponies I enjoyed seeing at RSPB Loch of Strathbeg I’ve heard a lot about them before. 3. View from Cairnbulg. 4. A Corn Bunting we saw extremely well including singing nicely at Banff, one of the revelations of the trip for me seen on the last day of it and a bird I love seeing. 5 and 6. Gorse dominated coastal scenes at Troup Head I did love the bright gorse of Scotland last week it was so good to take in. 7, 8 and 9. Fulmars, Gannets and Puffins respectively the other half of my super six seabirds alongside Guillemot, Razorbill and Kittiwake the birds that first inspired me and I first really took to my heart in my early birding days that it was a pleasure to see last Friday really heartfelt experiences seeing them and nice to see them at a colony further north than I ever had. The Fulmars were elegant wonders dominating those last two days of the tour, the Gannets were heartening to see and be immersed in after their struggles generally last year and the Puffin a bird I have such a strong connection to and love for was the surprise but perfect ending to our trip such charismatic and colourful birds to observe always. 10. View from Kinnaird Head on a great sunny visit there.

That day I also enjoyed seeing Sandwich Tern, Pink-footed Geese, Marsh Harrier, passerine birds like Yellowhammer and Tree Sparrow seen well at Loch of Strathbeg and Skylark that day too, Hooded Crow, Common Seal, Roe Deer seen from my hotel room in the morning at Nethy Bridge, scurvygrass and lesser celandine.

Guillemot sketch | Limited edition fine art print from an original drawing. My sketches start life as hand-drawn graphite images made on cartridge paper. I often work on these with charcoal, oil pastel or Caran d'Ache to create the look I'm after. The artwork is then scanned and finessed digitally ready for fine art printing. This process often referred to as Giclée printing uses the highest standard of printing methods to give gallery quality results that maintain all the details of the original sketch. The graphite pencils I use are Faber-Castel, the oil pastels are Sennelier and the china-graph is Caran d’Ache. The inks are pigment based archive quality (100years+). The heavyweight specialist papers I use are of the best professional quality having a wonderful surface designed specifically for fine art drawings and illustrations. Very limited editions with only ten per size printed. All artwork is signed and includes a certificate of authenticity. The A5 are 5.8" x 8.25" (14.8cm x 21cm) The A4 are 8.25" x 11.7" (21cm x 29.8cm) The A3 are 11.7" x 16.5" (29.8 cm x 42cm) The A2 are 16.5" x 23.4" (42 cm x 59.4cm) Frames not included in price. Free shipping on artwork to UK destinations.
