todaysbird:

thepomarine jaeger is a large member of the skua family. they are a migratory bird, found along coastlines throughout much of the world, but tend to settle and breed in eurasia. they are often difficult to identify, as their three distinct color morphs (light, dark, intermediate) can lead to confusion. these birds often prey on fish, small mammals, and birds; they are also known for parasitic feeding, meaning their food sources are stolen from other predatory birds. given their large size and aggressive nature, they have few natural predators.
