Down at the Gauldrons

Just south of Machihanish, a wonderful coastal walk brings you to this landscape. While we see nice seabirds on the water, I also spot a bird of prey flying around the top edge of these cliffs. See the PiP for closer look at the big outcrop. Enjoy full screen.

A sister photo to the next on here showing the big outcrop here at The Gaudrons at Machrihanish. As rabbits hop about we also see birds of pray hovering above. A wild spot for us. Have a good weekend.

As Ukraine is hammered relentlessly by bigger and bigger bombs we try to relax here for a while watching the seals. We are making a walk along the shores to a place full of rocks and boulders pounded by the Atlantic. The building in front of us is actually the ‘Marine Environmental Research Laboratory’ run by the Institute of Agriculture, University of Stirling. To the right is the Machrihanish Seabird/Wildlife Observatory and it is from that we see the blue and yellow flag of Ukraine proudly flying high with our support. Enjoy full size and enjoy your week in safety. ps the seals are on the rocks in the foreground plus the white baby seal.
