If watching seabirds at such close range wasn't good enough, what made this an even more memorable experience was the appearance of a Golden Eagle at the top of the cliff, this created a bit of a panic amongst the colony, with many more auks diving into the sea to avoid its attentions. This was the second Golden Eagle on our trip, with the first being a distant bird being mobed by a Raven over the cliffs near the Old Man of Storr, north of Portree.
