1)Anstruther harbour, taken from the boat just before we left for the island.


2)Puffin in flight with sand eels


3)Puffin


4)Ellie lighthouse, Fife. Stopped off for some landscape stuff on the way back home.


5)Arctic tern


6)Puffin


7)Gannet


8)Puffin


9)Puffin


10)Guillemot


11)Puffins


12)Arctic tern


13)Puffin


14)Puffin

Re: Isle of May

I don't really do 'birds' as such, but as always, these look fantastic, crystal clear and vibrant colours...can only imagine the birds in flight require a well practised technique to get the timing and exposure spot on.
