Two years' worth of seabird photographs have been submitted by Guernsey to a global ecosystem study.
Agriculture, Countryside and Land Management Services set up a camera on Lihoumel, near Lihou, in 2021 to document a shags colony.
The images taken have been submitted to an international initiative, run by the University of Oxford.
The "Seabirdwatch" study hopes to provide insight into seabird populations, and how they breed, handle invasive predators, habitat destruction and human disturbance.
Natural Environment Officer, Emily Coule, says it is a privilege to be involved:
“It’s fantastic to see the images being published as part of this international programme.
Using cameras is a clever and cost-effective way of improving our understanding of seabirds whilst avoiding causing disturbance to wildlife.
These photos can help researchers in several areas and also allows the public to view otherwise unseen parts of our environment.
