Fulmar Northern (light) (Fulmarus glacialis) in flight – Troup Head Reserve Aberdeenshire Scotland

Troup Head is an RSPB Reserve specifically for a large Gannet Colony.

The white head is diagnostic of the more common light type.

I have added this Dark Fulmar to compare with the Light more common version.
