Two Razorbill chicks have fledged for the first time on an island off the Northumberland Coast, conservationists have said.

Although a small number of Razorbills have been seen attempting to breed on Coquet Island since 2021, July marked the first successful fledging of chicks, the RSPB said.

The charity said the island was not an obvious choice for the birds as they usually nested on cliffs, but up to 12 had been spotted this year.
