A close-up of the very appropriately named Razorbill, one of the estimated 20,000 pairs that nest annually on the Bempton Cliffs, in the North York Moors, on the shores of the North Sea.

A member of the Auk family, it appears as a dumpy or dull bird from a distance, but getting close and capturing its beautiful detail, really makes it shine.

It spends its entire life adrift on the sub-Antarctic oceans, only coming ashore for 60 days a year to breed on cliff-top nesting sites, monogamous, laying only a single egg and raising only a single chick each year.

Razorbills are capable of both diving and of flight, diving to depths of 400 feet to feed on schooling fish, and remarkably, a bird ringed in the UK in 1967, survived for at least 41 years!

You do not know how special seeing these birds is until you've seen a thousand of them perched on a cliffside cuddling up together and shouting at any other bird that tries to land Razorbill at Bempton Cliffs #razorbill #seabirds #rspb_love_nature #rspbbemptoncliffs (at RSPB Bempton Cliffs) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRGZ69SAlm-/?utm_medium=tumblr
