Arctic skuas chase other birds, normally arctic terns at this location, so that they will drop their catch and the skua then gets a easy meal. In this case it was chasing a juv gull, herring I think, in the hope it will regurgitate the fish it had just swallowed.

That looks really good against the ice and the shadows on the ice.
