Jaeger silhouettes

  

A few Parasitic Jaeger (Stercorarius parasiticus) shots from the offshore boat trip on 23 May 2021.   

Jaegers are impressive aerialists they're kleptoparasites, chasing other birds like terns and gulls to force them to drop their fish.  

The lighting was a little tough, dark birds against an overcast sky, but I love their silhouettes.  Enjoy!  [You can click on the images for larger versions.]
