Common Guillemot (Uria aalge) Resting up, in the high temperatures of a very warm spring day. Competition for space is fierce during the breeding season and it seems that some birds enjoy a little respite by sitting out on the edges for a bit before tackling the passage to it's nest and all the pecking that may come with it.
