Saturday 27th July comments: So they’re still here, but not
for much longer!
Our seabird chicks have had a
fantastic season, with lots of food and plenty of settled weather. That’s all
they need!!! It really has been a sensational summer and with all the doom and
gloom stories with seabirds around Britain, the Farnes are holding strong
(touch wood!). The Sand Eel population is brilliant, with Puffins recorded
bringing in over thirty fish at a time!!
The late start for the seabirds means there
are still lots of birds around, so if you’re thinking of coming out to the
Farnes to enjoy our seabirds, get yourselves out here soon!! It's an amazing place!
