Black Guillemots
The Black Guillemot has a striking black plumage with white wing patches and bright red legs and feet making it easy to identify in summer. In winter, the upperparts are pale grey and the underparts are white but the wings remain black.
Unlike most other European auks the Black Guillemot is typically found in single or small numbers.
The Black Guillemot can be found all year round and can typically be seen on the larger sea lochs of western Scotland and the northern and western isles of Scotland. It is also found in Ireland, the Isle of Man and in a handful of spots in England and Wales.
