EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a historic meet-up! This Storm Petrel seems to have taken a wrong turn and ended up on the side of an Iron Age Broch in Mousa, Shetland. Perhaps it's trying to blend in with its ancient surroundings or just seeking some shelter from the stormy seas. Either way, this little seabird has found itself a unique perch! Known for their incredible navigation skills, Storm Petrels are true masters of the open ocean. But who knew they also had an eye for architectural wonders? This photo captures the perfect fusion of nature and history, as this feathered explorer perches proudly atop one of Scotland's most iconic archaeological sites. The RSPB Reserve in Shetland must be buzzing with excitement over this unexpected visitor. It's not every day you see a hydrobates pelagicus striking a pose next to centuries-old ruins! Maybe our winged friend is here to share tales of epic voyages across vast oceans or simply looking for some avian companionship amidst human-made marvels. Whatever brought them together, one thing is certain – this snapshot showcases the beauty and serendipity that can occur when wildlife meets heritage. So next time you're exploring ancient ruins, keep your eyes peeled for any surprise guests like our adventurous Storm Petrel here!
