​
A roar is heard from the Atlantic Ocean. From the horizon and beyond fulmars, arctic terns and herring-gulls are heading out.
​
A couple of years ago scientists in Iceland started to discover that the huge colonies of birds suddenly started to disappear.
​
From all over Iceland reports of dead chicks are coming in.
​
The predominant cause of the deaths is the changing climate. As the Atlantic Ocean gets warmer the currents change and so is the abundance of the bird´s prey.
​
This is a story about change.
About what happens as the tide rolls in.
