In an attempt to catch up and get up to date, I’ve decided to group all my other holiday photos together. (I say my, but I’ve included 2 of Jude’s as well – suitably credited to her). As you will see we had some nice weather (unlike the rest of the UK at the time I understand) and we had yet another fabulous boat ride to the Farne Islands, where thousands of seabirds were nesting.
My apologies for all the bird pictures, but I know there are some keen birders out there following my posts. If any of them/you can identify the little brown birds in pics 2 and 28 then I’d be very grateful. I have my suspicions about the first but no idea about the second.
Nice set Mike, 2 is a Chiffchaff and 28 is a male Linnet. Off to Greece in a few hours so I’ll be quiet for a week or so.

Glad you liked them. I’m always amazed at how different and varied yours are to ours in Europe (when I see them on various posts, as I’ve never really been over there long enough to study the birds).

We’re always on the look out for something ‘new’. Apparently 2 was a Chiffchaff and 28 a Linnet. It’s a gorgeous part of the UK which not many people visit (thankfully), so we love it there. It was indeed a great holiday with great weather. (The wind even added to the drama of the stormy looking seas!)
