Puffin

Puffin
Taken on Skokholm Island.

I bet some of you thought I wasn't coming back..!!

We were supposed to spend 7 days on Skokholm but due to high winds, rough seas and a heavy swell, we were unable to get off safely, so we ended up having to stay for 11 days instead! I have a huge amount of photos to process and a lot of catching up on here, so please be patient with me.

I love puffins and this is a super shot Keith. I guess the extra days were an added bonus! I look forward to seeing more of the results of your trip. Have a good weekend

Thanks Carol. The extra days were an unexpected bonus, even if it mean we had to scrounge food from the Wardens and the Volunteers - and even though it meant another 4 days without a shower..!!

Lovely to think there are lots of photos to look forward to. This is a lovely portrait. Puffins never fail to charm and the background is perfect.

Hi Keith and welcome back.Always a pleasure to see these small birds and your two here are great. I managed a couple of them whilst near John o' Groats some years back now. Looks like you had better weather than I had on the Llŷn Peninsula in Wales last week where it was mostly mist and overcast.
Cheers, Herb

Thanks Herb............we were doing well on the weather front until a couple of days before we were due to leave when in turned stormy and wet. We ended up getting stuck on the island for for days until it was safe to get a boat in to pick us up!
