Summary edit

Description
Deutsch: Dreizehenmöwen (Rissa tridactyla) jagen Fischschwärme vor dem Monacogletscher im Liefdefjord, Spitzbergen. In einem der Gletschertore unterhalb des Eises ist das Wasser besonders fischreich; dies sind ideale Jagdreviere für Vögel. Hier kalben größere Eisbrocken aus der Decke des Gletschertores und scheuchen die Vögel auf.
English: Kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla) hunting fish in front of the Monaco glacier, Liefdefjord, Spitsbergen (Norway). At this time, a bigger chunk of ice is calving from the ceiling of the cave and flushes the birds.
