Amazing shot! Looks like it's out of a video game or something.

Wow that’s a great shot! Where is the isle of noss?

It’s a Scottish island in the North Sea bordering to the North Atlantic. It’s quite small. To reach it you have to take a ferry, then a smaller ferry, and then a dinghy.

This sounds very nice. I wonder if there is an even smaller island beyond Noss that you have to row to in a barrel 🤔

If that would be the case, I would be very upset to not have visited it.

Did you find any other cool birds on noss

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Mostly them. There have been also bastards (guides words, not mine) and something I called weird flappflapp. GF knew what its real name is, but I gave up trying to remember any of them. I am not a bird person, just happen to walk into them all the time.
