Skua birds are primarily found in the Southern Hemisphere, particularly in sub-Antarctic regions, including the Falkland Islands, South Georgia, and the Antarctic Peninsula. Some species, like the great skua, can also be found in the North Atlantic during breeding season, particularly along the coasts of Iceland and the UK. They inhabit coastal areas, often nesting on cliffs or open tundra near the sea. During migration, skuas can be seen over open ocean waters.
