High-quality print of a black-legged kittiwake in fight, taken by the kittiwake hotel in Vardø, Finnmark (northern Norway).

About the photo

Kittiwake about to land on a platform at the kittiwake hotel in Kiberg, Vardø kommune (Varanger/Finnmark, northern Norway). Here kittiwakes are starting to make their nests in the cities, rather than the nearby birdcliffs, where they find protection from predators like white-tailed eagles.

In order to avoid the kittiwakes nesting on people's homes and offer the kittiwakes a safe breeding ground, people in the "kittiwake towns" built hotels for their kittiwakes. This gives them an easy but controlled space to nest.
