Guillemots on the Farne Islands. Numbers of these seabirds have reduced dramatically in recent years as a result of climate change. Warming sea temperatures of the north sea have caused a shift in the plankton that are the main food source for sand eels, which in return are the food for the Guillemot. Many young have starved as their parents have struggled to find enough food.
