South Stack, Anglesey 16/05/10

One of my all-time favourite wildlife spots.

A stunning location and home to one of the biggest (if not the biggest?) on-shore seabird colonies in the UK, with hundreds of breeding Common Guillemots, Razorbills, Black-legged Kittiwakes, Fulmars, Greater Black-backed and Herring Gulls and European Shags, with a scattering of Atlantic Puffins for good measure and a good chance of Northern Gannets feeding just offshore. The moorland above the cliffs have Red-billed Chough and Stonechat as well.

All the species above were in attendance on this glorious Sunday morning.


These are Fulmars on one of the ledges.
