Puffins ... need i say more

Puffins are part of the Alcidae (Auk) family of seabirds, which also include razorbills and guillemots. They can fly, swim, and dig burrows and are one of three species of puffin in the world. Over half the world’s population of Puffins comes to Iceland for breeding. When travelling around Iceland with my father I got a couple of nice photos of them being...well...puffins.

The Gannet

There was an amazing gannet show at work today as they plunged into the water meters from the boat. The passengers were in awe of their spectacular diving technique and the sound it makes when they hit the water at such velocity. An incredible bird. 

Harbour Porpoises

We are seeing so many harbour Porpoises on our tours now with Elding Whale Watching Reykjavik (www.elding.is)  that it has given me a chance to get some nice pictures of them. Whoo hoo!

My trip to Snaefellsnes

A couple of weeks ago my friend Maria and I had a little road trip to the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, on the West coast of Iceland. Such a beautiful place to visit.
