Bridled Guillemot - Uria Aalge

Skomer

Bridled Guillemots make up approx 2% of the UK Population, which increases slightly the further North you go.(id the white eye ring and white flash, off)
It is thought that Bridling is linked to the increase in brightness/Glare of more Northern reaches.
It is not a separate species, but a genetic sub species.

(Thanks Alannah!)
