South Stack Seabird colony, Holyhead, Wales, July 2016

 Guillemots on a ledge, 7/12.
 Razorbills.
Only a few Atlantic Puffins left, post breeding season.
 Mostly Guillemots on one section of cliff, South Stack. The sound so earthy, it seemed unearthly!

Holyhead Wales, July 2016

 First campsite in Wales, the ferry terminal at Holyhead, 7/11.(Later heard it is the most dangerous place in Wales. Something to do with the Irish Mafia? using this place as a transit hub?) I slept well.
 Met my first local.
 Sheep land, en route to South Stack.
