    There is continuous frenzied activity at the Akpait bird cliff as adults fly from their nests to feed at sea and then bring back food for their young chicks. The traffic is fast and furious. Sometimes large groups of kittiwakes take flight at the same time, filling the air with their high pitched cries.: by beelover, Views[449]
         		 Brunnich's guillemots (Uria lomvia) and black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) are among the birds which migrate to the Arctic to breed. They choose rugged cliffs for their nest sites to gain protection from predators. One such nest site is this cliff on Baffin Island in the Akpait National Wildlife Area. It houses one of Canada's largest Brunnich's guillemots colonies.: by beelover, Views[629]

         		 Once in the water, the parent calls the chick until the family is reunited. The male then stays with the chick for about 8 weeks, feeding it and teaching it to feed and look after itself. The pair swims south, joining huge rafts of birds, and the group is eventually reunited with the females. Brunnich's guillemots live at sea except during the breeding season.: by beelover, Views[250]
         		 Brunnich's guillemot chicks are fed by both parents for 18-25 days. Then they have to make a leap of faith from high up on the cliff to the water below. When the chick jumps, a parent, usually the male, follows immediately and shadows the chick on its descent. Unable to fly, the chick spreads its wings and feet to give it some sort of gliding ability. Sometimes the second parent also follows to make sure all is well.: by beelover, Views[287]
         		 The availability of real estate on the cliff is very limited with only a few narrow ledges offering suitable sites. Birds nest in a dense, cacophonous crowd. The noise has to be heard to be believed. Perhaps it is fortunate that Brunnich's guillemots require less than 1 square foot per bird. Eggs are laid on the bare rock, their shape preventing them from rolling off. Adults have to land precisely when returning to their nest.: by beelover, Views[290]

         		 Each step becomes larger as the ladder becomes smaller, converging lines surround us. It feels as if soon the ladder will be too small to scale. Progressively it begins to feel more dangerous as the ground becomes more and more distant. : by stuartdavis, Views[636]
         		 Facemask’s on, belts and shoes synched tight. A look of excitement glistens in our eyes as the background noise of consequence shadows over us. This ones not for the faint of the heart, with high risk comes high reward as we attempt to scale to the top of Toronto. : by stuartdavis, Views[470]
