Northern Fulmars approaching their nesting grounds at the Bjørnøya aka Bear Island. These gulls are monogamous and many times seen flying in pairs. They nest at the same cliffs on the southern part of Bear Island, year after year just like their ancestors did. Bear island as small as it is, it is also a haven for one of the biggest bird colonies in the northern hemisphere.
