Guillemot nest attacked by polar bear at end of day

A "video" made from stills taken at a Black Guillemot nest site. A pair of nonbreeding birds spend a good amount of time outside the nest. Parents come back with fish to feed the chicks but are only seen as they exit the site. Late in the evening one of the nestlings regularly poops outside the nest and then just after darkness falls a polar bear arrives and eats the chicks before staring into the camera.
