An Atlantic puffin, loaded up with a catch of juvenile herring, pursued closely by a razorbill in its' return to the nesting site. This feeding strategy, also known as kleptoparasitism, is used by some animals to theive food items and save on the potential time and effort that would otherwise be required to obtain them. In this case, the puffin successfully evaded the razorbill and returned to the colony with meal in beak.
