Corpse of a great skua (Stercorarius skua) that died of bird flu. Bird flu has killed off many great skuas, which were already endangered due to climate change and overfishing. A bird flu pandemic caused by the H5N1 strain has been killing millions of wild and farmed birds since early 2020. Breeding colonies of seabirds have been particularly badly hit. Filmed on Sandness Hill on Mainland Shetland, UK, looking out to Papa Stour, on 27th June 2022.
