A Scootie Allan attacking a Mallimack.

An Arctic Skua attacking a Fulmar.

A Stercorarius parasiticus attacking a Fulmarus glacialis.

Dramatic, isn’t it, in any language? This Fulmar strayed a little too close to the territory of a pair of Arctic Skuas and was pecked and mobbed into the distance. The Arctic Skua pecked its bum, grabbed its leg and harassed it as much as possible in an attempt to get it to disgorge its food.

It escaped with a pecked bum and missing its dignity.
