Four maps of the Arctic Skuas' migratory routes, showing the southward and northward journeys. On the southward journey, most birds moved through the North Sea and the English Channel then along the Iberian Peninsula and off West Africa., On the northward journey, individuals that wintered around the Patagonian Shelf and Benguela Current returned north via West Africa. All the birds, including those wintering in the Canary Current, headed into the mid-Atlantic before returning to Scotland.
