    Thank you very much.

    These pictures were taken with my Fuji 602 camera.

    I had the best day ever wandering around the island. 4 hours we were there and I only covered half of the island. Can't wait until we go over for another trip. Such beautiful scenery, buildings, birds and flowers. I loved my day immensely.
    Thanks

    Default Nesting Fulmar



    I didn't even see this nesting fulmar tucked away in the corner of this old building. It wasn't until she 'threw up' close to me that I looked to find out what had happened. Lucky me, they would have tied me over the side of the boat and dragged me through the water on the way home if her aim had been better !!!
    Thanks

    Question Lighthouse and Buildings

    Can anyone tell me what the buildings below the Lighthouse were used for?

    Excuse the quality of these two photos, I took these with my camcorder and didn't realise what poor quality when downloaded to pc. Wish I had used my camera now !




    Thanks
    Catherine

    Looks like the pelvic girdle of something - how large was it? Could be a rabbit.
