Anglesey

A week in Anglesey was largely spent looking at ancient monuments with my wife - stone circles, burial chambers, standing stones, but I did get the chance to take a few birds.

Southstack lighthouse is near Ellen's Point, an RSPB reserve with views of Guillimots, Razorbills and a small number of Puffins.


The Puffins are the stars.

Whitethroats were singing from almost every vantage point it seemed.


I was dead choughed captering these:

The pipits are meadows I think.

I was very please to capture the Stonechat.


 Cemlyn is famous for it's Tern colony. Some Common Terns and the odd Arctic but mainly Sandwich Terns.



And the odd seal.

A Buzzard and it's Greenfinch pal complete my Anglesey shots.
