Recent decline in body condition of departing Common Guillemots Uria aalge at Hornøya, North Norway

Since 1980, there has been large variation and a recent decline in the mass and body condition of Common Guillemot Uria aalge chicks departing from the nest site in NE Norway. This may be related to deterioration in the feeding conditions off the colony and is alarming considering the critically end...
