Skomer, here we come ......... (I hope)

 



It`s time to book those tickets for the annual pilgrimage to Skomer Island in Pembrokeshire again. 

If you`ve never been to Skomer, it`s home to thousands of seabirds, including Puffin, Guillemots, Razorbills amongst others, plus the largest concentration of breeding Shearwaters. One of the main attractions of the island for me are the Short Eared Owls, although I was jinxed last year. 




Going to try and get a couple of visits arranged this year if I can. Possibly late May, in the hope that it might be a good SEO year, and maybe late June / early July for the Puffin bringing in the sand eels.

Calendar checks this weekend!

Is it too early to make my flask and sandwiches?
