    Default south stack lighthouse anglesy

    this is a view of the lighthouse on south stack anglesy. this is a lovely place to go bird watching.. or just a walk even. there is an r.s.p.b centre here.
    you can see puffins here in summer and there are good numbers of razorbills, guillemots and other cliff dwelling seabirds. there is a path consisting of stone steps leading down the the cliffs.... its not so bad going down, but getting back up leaves you panting!!

    Default puffins at south stack, anglesy

    these images were taken at long distance, to add to this the lens on my telescope had come loose. the results are a bit poor really, but thought i'd stick them on anyway. the puffins are quite easy to pick out, on the rock face, as their 'bright orange feet' stand out very well. this little chap was just emerging from a hole in the rocks.... if you only manage to spot one it's worth it, they're such comical little things.

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Well done on the puffin shots andy, we went to south stacks a couple of times last year not managed to see a puffin yet, must admit the highlight for me were the stonechats in the car park
