An Early Start
Up early and out to Traigh Mhor (Big Sand), south from the ferry terminal. A rich morning light and a still sleepy island meant I had it near enough to myself.
Species: Rock Dove
Coquet Island and The Roseate Tern
A very different experience to most of the islands I’ve been to was the trip to Coquet Island off the Northumberland Coast. It’s managed by the RSPB and landing is not permitted. Its lure is the Roseate Terns and of course Puffins.
