| Kittiwake |
The Kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla) has a circumpolar distribution in the arctic and temperate regions and occur in the North Atlantic and North Pacific.
In Europe, it lives primarily in the North Atlantic coasts. During the 1900s, it has established itself in the North Sea and Kattegat. It is partly a migratory bird, and from August to April (outside the breeding season) the bird is only found on the high seas. During this period, different atlantic colonies are mixed with each other. The Kittiwake is the most common bird in the North Atlantic.
