Oh how I love these birds of many colours

July 20, 2022

A hot summer’s day. The sky a blazing blue. The tang of saltwater wafting on a slight breeze.

Now this is my kind of Baywatch... Portraits of King's King Penguins, Salisbury Plain, South Georgia. Although we were unable to land due to the weather it was still pretty epic watching these guys through the screens. 'Whales' in Wales. A glorious evening at Point Lynas lighthouse the other week. This was the start of our weeks holiday in Anglesey. A week that would be filled with dolphins, rock pooling and bird watching. Whats in a name? Writing about an incredible encounter with two southern right whales just off of Stanley in The Falklands with @orca_web and @hxexpeditions, got me thinking about why these whales are called right whales and what I would rename them if I had the chance... A day exploring Stanley in the Falklands. And what a glorious day! A new blog about my adventures in the Southern Ocean with @orca_web and @hxexpeditions. This time its the wonderful wildlife on and around Carcass Island, The Falklands... whales, LBJs and a super intelligent bird of prey. A weekend camping and bird ringing. Lots of young birds around in moult so looking rather scruffy!
