Fantastic!...must have been a super trip...thanks for sharing it Joe.
ReplyDeleteIt was!! I was aboard the Sapphire for what turned out to be the most memorable trip for me and brought the broadest smiles even to the local birders who may have seen it times many before. The views of all the seabirds were stunning, most of them at eye level or just above and miles better than those from a cliff top elsewhere in the British Isles. Three lifers for me in this and the previous Monday's trip so well worth it; many thanks, Joe, for taking the Sapphire to the right place at the right time

Pity there isn't a category for this in the olympics. Joe would certainly win a gold medal!!!
DeleteNice photos Joe. Sounds like a brilliant trip. Steve.
ReplyDeleteSaw your Cory's Shearwater shots in the July Birding World.... well done.
