The way all those thousands of birds cram together on them cliffs there, I'm sure that this isn't an isolated incident.
Real shame though.

Murder
An act where one person (note not applicable to a bird!) kills another, either intending to cause death or intending to cause serious injury.
Poor Gannet. Just trying to have a minute when someone else's kid gets in the way of the feet you were given at birth

No, not by a peregrine or even a marauding gull, but a gannet.
On Sunday this gannet decided it wanted to sit well away from the main gannet colony, on a ledge where guillemots were breeding, and there was some understandable threat behaviour going on.
Then the gannet's big flappy feet dislodged a guillemot chick which plummeted off the cliff to its inevitable death - shrieks of horror all round!
