The #flora of the #Saltees also extra special. Bluebell common within expanses of bracken & sorrel, sea campion adding extensive splashes of white, & sea pink common. Altogether lovely, especially on a sunny day! Míle buíochas to the land owner for allowing access to this bit of heaven on earth

#gannet colonies are something special on the #Saltees. Yesterday, was extra special as they enjoyed the warmth of the late afternoon sun

#Saltees are noted for #bird life & yesterday did not disappoint; birds, flora, landscape, boat trip, helpful NPWS wardens, all in 'sunny south-east' of Ireland. Firstly, the big draw - the puffins: up close, and on grassy & rocky cliff faces; they don't have to call-out for attention

Gannets mating or maybe one going for the other’s throat because it did something wrong or looked sideways lol

Love and marriage
