The Birdlife of Jökulsárlón, Iceland - [Original Photo Series]

Hey all,

Jökulsárlón is located in southern Iceland and is normally noted for its amazing iceberg lagoon and diamond beach. However, the birdlife there is also astounding if you stop to take a look at it. All of these images were taken over the outlet channel between the Jökulsárlón lagoon and the ocean. There were a large number of arctic terns, gulls and some large black seabirds that I am not sure the species of. They were quite intent on trying to steal the fish from the terns. The terns are nasty little buggers, on the way to our boat ride we had to walk beside a nesting site and we got dive bombed by them!

Hope you like these images.
