  1. Inner Farne birds - mostly Puffin doing Puffin things (disappearing down burrows, pooping, pairing up, loafing) but Arctic Tern establishing territory, a marauding Lesser Black-backed Gull looking to scavenge food from Puffin and Grey Seal also.

    I went with Billy Shiel's Boats out of #Seahouses.

    The Farne Islands are renowned for their diverse and abundant wildlife, especially seabirds and seals. They host significant colonies of puffins, Arctic terns, guillemots, razorbills, and kittiwakes. The islands are particularly famous for their puffin population during the breeding season.

    The islands are accessible by boat from Seahouses. Boat trips are seasonal and weather-dependent, with the best time to visit being between May and July for bird watching, and September to November for seal pupping.

    The Farne Islands are a group of islands located off the northeastern coast of England, in Northumberland. They are situated in the North Sea, approximately 2-3 miles from the mainland town of Seahouses.

    The islands are historically significant, particularly Inner Farne, where St. Cuthbert, a 7th-century hermit and later Bishop of Lindisfarne, lived for part of his life. He established rules for the protection of seabirds, considered one of the earliest forms of wildlife conservation.

  18. It's National Marine Week with The Wildlife Trusts, so I thought I'd share some marine-related folklore!

    This is Inner Farne, in the Farne Islands.

    St Cuthbert is said to have driven the evil spirits from the island when he settled there, though they occasionally return. When they do, they scream and ride black goats before disappearing.

  19. It's National Marine Week with The Wildlife Trusts, so I thought I'd share some marine-related folklore!

    This is one of the many rocky islands among the Farne Islands - I took this photo back in 2019 on a trip to see the puffins. Some say the islands are haunted by the many shipwrecked sailors who died in the area.

  20. Feeling very grateful I got to see the puffins on Inner Farne back in 2019. They're such fun little birds with lots of character! #Puffins #FarneIslands

  21. "We were thinking we must be able to do something about this, there must be some guidance, or some way to prevent it spreading, but everything was geared towards poultry farms. There was no information on wild birds."

    Devastating and moving account from the frontline of the avian flu crisis.
