The parasitic jaeger (North America) or Arctic skua (Europe) (Stercorarius parasiticus), is a seabird in the skua family Stercorariidae. It is a migratory species that breeds in Northern Scandinavia, Scotland, Iceland, Greenland, Northern Canada, Alaska, and Siberia and winters across the southern hemisphere. Kleptoparasitism is a major source of food for this species during migration and winter, and is where the name is derived from.

The word "jaeger" is derived from the German word Jäger, meaning "hunter". The English "skua" comes from the Faroese name skúgvur [ˈskɪkvʊər] for the great skua, with the island of Skúvoy known for its colony of that bird. The general Faroese term for skuas is kjógvi.

Identification is complicated by similarities to long-tailed jaeger and pomarine jaeger, and the existence of three colour morphs. Light-morph adults have a brown back, mainly white underparts and dark primary wing feathers with a white "flash". The head and neck are yellowish-white with a black cap and there is a pointed central tail projection. Dark-morph adults are dark brown, and intermediate-phase birds are dark with somewhat paler underparts, head and neck. All morphs have the white wing flash.

An immature parasitic jaeger

Identification of juveniles is even more problematic, and it is difficult to separate parasitic jaegers from long-tailed jaegers. Parasitic jaegers are bulkier, shorter-winged, and less tern-like than long-tailed jaegers. They are usually warmer toned, with browner shades, rather than grey. However, they show the same wide range of plumage variation. The flight is more falcon-like. The parasitic jaeger is the most common of the three jaeger species seen from shore.

This species breeds in the north of Eurasia and North America, with significant populations as far south as northern Scotland, in Shetland and Orkney, the Outer Hebrides, Sutherland, Caithness, and some islands in Argyll. Birds in North America breed in Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, the Hudson Bay coast, and parts of Northern Quebec and Nunatsiavut.

In 2018, Stercorarius parasiticus was regionally uplisted to Endangered in Iceland, from Least Concern in 2000, after their numbers declined drastically in the early 2000s. It is globally listed as Least Concern. (wikipedia)

This was taken off the shoreline of Skerries, Co. Dublin in the teeth of Storm Agnes during the autumn of 2023. The bird powered through with ease. Any day one sees a skua is a good day!

A few weeks ago, Lincoln, Nebraska had a terrible thunderstorm with 83 mph winds, and we had a massive, tree-sized limb fall on our roof. It pretty much destroyed our overhang porch and caused some damage to our roof. We are still waiting on an insurance assessment. Hopefully, we'll get some news this week!

Panning Images are captured with slower shutter speeds while apex-of-corner shots (camera not panning) are captured with fast shutter speeds. My A9 camera settings can be accessed here: youtu.be/2FYU6uMDFsw

Today Luminar 4 came out.. I had pre-ordered it and couldn't wait to test it. I've probably overdone it ut admitedly the AI is pretty darn good.

However.. I am seriously complicating my workflow. Step 1: Open the A9II RAW-files in Capture One (since Adobe doesn't support it yet). Step 2: Sky replacement in Luminar. Step 3: Final touches, copyrights, .. in Photoshop.

I guess i'll be even slower than before ;)
