Skuas Again!


Following the interest in my previous shot (link in note) of the pair of South Polar Skuas Stercorarius maccormicki, here's a wider shot to give more context. Although it's easy to dislike skuas because they predate on penguin chicks and eggs, they also fill a very useful role as scavengers, keeping the area clean: natural decay in Antarctica is very slow indeed.
