    This is a wonderful view of a Common Murre. The books make the head and back look darker than this, but in the sun, the brown color shows up more than the books show. It has the distinctive bill shape, the line behind the eye, the white edge of the wing feathers, and the white on its front and underside. Nice shot--I've never got any where this close to a murre.
