Coastal Wildlife

Mention Northumberland seabirds, and you immediately think of the Farne Islands. It is with out doubt, one of the most spectacular sanctuaries for many species that come each year to breed. A photographer's paradise, where there must be many metres of film exposed on these wonderful sea birds. It makes life so much easier being able to approach to with in a few meters, without causing any disturbance. The greatest downfall on some occasions, can be the boat crossing and the weather, especially if there are prevailing Easterly winds.

One of my favourite sea life creatures are the terrestrial mammals the seals. Looking somewhat like a sorrowful dog, Atlantic Grey Seal are on the increase along many coastal habitats. I have visited quite a few colonies both in Scotland, and here in the North East of England, but none can compare with the Lincolnshire Coast.
