The last few days have been rather challenging! Very strong wind from the north east coupled with rain, heavy at times, have not been at all pleasant! Although this morning the wind had lessened, squally showers were a bit of a pain still requiring my big coat, woolly hat and gloves! The light was poor, requiring high ISO and the wind challenged the steadiness of my posture. Hopefully, I have made the following images a little bit atmospheric?
I managed to get on to my first Great Skua of the year albeit out of camera range. Several Red Throated Divers, groups of Wigeon, Eider, Cormorants and Shag were seen heading north east. Dominant birds are the Gannets with Fulmars in much smaller numbers.
Gannets
And an Eider
Till next time.................................
It took me a while to look at the gannet pics (my favorite coastal bird) because the puffin close up head picture made me gasp and fill up with tears of joy. Silly soppy female.
