Common Murres were everywhere. They look a little like penguins, with their tuxedos nice and groomed. Newfoundlanders call them Turres, I don't know why. There is a bird they also call a Tickle Ace. I know why but I can't think of the kind of bird! They call them Tickle aces because when they fly they are so close to each other's arse that it looks like they are tickling it. Hence - Tickle Ace.
Then there were the Kittiwakes whose call sounds just like that. They look just like Herring Gulls except they have darker coloring. They also eat young birds. |
