Throwback Thursday! I can still feel the breeze, the energy, the rhythm of my time painting on Skokholm Island, just off the Pembrokeshire coast. Magical place! 💫

Oh, I wish! I was on Skokholm (Skomer’s sister island) for a week four decades ago, & sitting in Crab Bay watching the puffins was an endless delight! #Skomer #Skokholm
A colourful puffin's head is visible through a hole in a mud bank. Its white cheeks, triangular eye marking of black and orange, and its wonderful triangular black and orange ridged beak are all clearly visible. A single green leaf pokes out of the RHS of the opening.

Always relaxing on dream island

A calm sea with the low sun reflected through hazy clouds in the still water. There are dark rocks on the shore in the foreground and islands in the distance.

The cozy warmth of a puffin's wing pit

As raindrops descended like crystal whispers, the puffin raised its gaze, beak pointed to the heavens, entranced by the rhythmic dance of nature, a fleeting moment of serenity amid the storm's embrace.

It was a fantastic walk around St Annes Head from Dale in the gorgeous summer sunshine. Views across Milford Haven harbour, Angle and Skokholm. Highly recommended! #Aberdaugleddau #Pembrokeshire #Fungi #Parasol #Wales #Dale #MilfordHaven #Angle #Skokholm #Cymru #WalesCoastpath
