Puffins can be cute birds!



Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Thanks Charlotte!

Thanks Anni! I'll do my best for you but honestly, it shouldn't be hard. They have zero fear of humans on that island they literally walk right by your feet! I'm wanting to get the guillemots and razorbills too. Plus the arctic terns but that's a little more tricky as they like to attack you when you get off the boat. You absolutely need to wear a hat as they do peck you!

Yeah they are very cute. This is the closest I got last year as they had mostly left their burrows. I'm expecting much better opportunities this time round.

I saw some in Iceland.  Was careful not to get too close to the cliff's edge.

Not seen one living on the other coast. I get plenty of different bird habitats though. Surrounded by sea on 3 sides, lots of woodland,marshland and Marton Mere, a large freshwater lake and nature reserve.

You should totally pop over on your bike Kim, it's a fantastic day out really. It's right next to Bamburgh Castle too so you can add that into a weekend or two day visit. We have woodland and marsh, sand, salt marshes but we don't have the big sandy esturies that the West Coast has.

Now Iceland would be a cool trip! Always fancied a trip there. My Grandad was stationed there during the war. My Grandad always said "what the hell do you want to go there for? It's just Rocks and Ice, there's nothing there" I don't think he got it lol!

There is a scuba dive you can do there the water is so clear it looks loke your flying. You can touch touch two geological plates at the same time. I think it's the north American and the European plates. It would be da$$ cold but is a bucket list dive

Nope, Scuba diving isn't for me. I find the rocks and darkness very spooky. Plus the things in the sea don't like us, they bite us!
