Hi all, once again Mark and Michael get it right. Looks like I'm gonna have to find a real stinker to stump these guys....

[Michael Frankis]

Reason I went for Little Auk, as opposed to Guillie/Razor, was (1) the legs are very thin, much slenderer compared to body size than on Guillie/Razor, and (2) the white streaks on the tertials (just visible); Little Auk has these, the other Atlantic auks don't.

That was a bold assumption Michael as I never said where the photo was taken.....

[Highway Man]

The legs on Razorbill and Guillemot are set further back and appear alnost level with the tail.
