Description
South Polar Skua (Stercorarius maccormicki) always patrolling the penguin colonies for food. They will even grab penguin chicks and kill them. I saw this happening a couple of times during my Antarctic trip, and it's really heartbreaking. Nevertheless, the Skua is an amazing pelagic seabird that only comes to the Antarctic continent or nearby islands to breed.
