Tjaldurs

We enjoy seeing wildlife while on our trips, especially animals that are not found in the U.S.  This is a sea bird called a Tjaldur.  For my science geek friends, it's Haematopus ostralegus.  As best I can tell, the English translation of Tjaldur is Tent.  So here's a photo I took of a flock of Tent birds while out and about in Akureyri.
