It is just under a year since I last photographed the
Fulmars on Copeland Island and if you wish to have more information regarding
this bird, CLICK HERE. There are 2 sites,
one near the ’loo with a view’ and the other near one of the jettys. The first birds are at the former. There is a video at the end of this post.
I am standing near the jetty looking up at the cliff
and see 12 Fulmar.
When I went back to se the Fulmar on Sunday, I thought could
hear another couple of Fulmar but could not see them so I decided to climb up to
the top of the cliff the to see if I could see them. These next shots just show you how high it
was.
That’s the jetty , now below!
Yes that is my foot over the cliff edge and I decided the one shot you see below was good enough!
CLICK HERE if the video does not appear.
I hope you enjoyed seeing the Fulmar.
I am linking this post with SATURDAY CRITTERS.
Thanks for your visit and also to those who leave comments.
Don't jump Margaret.{:))
ReplyDeleteFulmars, one of the nice sea birds I think.
Fantastic shots! They look like they're smiling!
ReplyDeleteThat is some view! You have shared some wonderful photos! I hope you have a great weekend and thank you for taking the time to share these awesome photos.
ReplyDeleteMargaret, you were on such a cliff?
ReplyDeleteYou are a hero!
Birds are beautiful.
Photos wonderful !!!
At your birds at my magnolias.
Have a nice weekend:)*
That is quite a beak - and drop. Thank you. Braver than I am.
ReplyDeleteYou CLIMBED TO THE TOP OF THAT CLIFF!? So sheer and steep and rocky..I am glad you are still alive! These birds must be very noisy, they always have their beaks open! You are probably the most adventuresome person I know!!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of the birds. I like your 'my left foot' pic, too!

I quickly scrolled by the looking down shots as I don't like heights. I felt as though I was right there with you. Another bird I have never heard of before. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteYour video is great. It's interesting to be able to hear them and watch their courtship. They look like they are always smiling. Thanks Margaret for taping these adorable birds.
ReplyDeleteYou took some great shots of these interesting looking birds! They look like they have quite a lot to say and have such soulful eyes. I did get a bit of vertigo looking down the cliff - you are brave to get so close to the edge! Beautiful scenery - I love the mossy rockface.- Karen
ReplyDeleteBeautiful captures. I did enjoy seeing the Fulmar.
ReplyDeleteNice to see the Fulmars. Brings back memories of my years in Scotland.

Hello Margaret, you are the brave climbing around those rocks.. The Fulmars are cool birds, I like their weird bill. Awesome photos and videos.. Thank you for linking up, have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteClever birds to find such an out-of-the-way place to build nests!
ReplyDeleteThe rocks are beautiful and hopefully a safe place for nesting. Thanks for sharing your lovely photos.....Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love Fulmars, shame I haven't seen any for so many years..................
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of a lovely bird Margaret :) You were very brave going that close to the edge of the cliff!!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy seeing what you're seeing! This bird has an interesting looking bill!!
ReplyDeleteInteresting looking birds Margaret and quite an adventure for you also. I enjoyed your post.
ReplyDeleteWow what gorgeous photos of the Fulmars, which I probably will never see. Thanks for sharing them with us. Copeland Island is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteDo like fulmars/tube noses. Not keen with heights though, your dangling feet scared me. The 'loo' is becoming more appealing.
ReplyDeleteExcellent photos! Have a nice weekend, Margaret!
ReplyDeleteSuper shots of the Fulmar, Margaret. Your rather more brave than I am - I think that I'd have become rather dizzy if I stood where you were for that penultimate photo!
ReplyDeleteI hope that youi're having a great weekend - - - Richard
Fabulous pictures. It's a great looking bird.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great series of photos, Margaret. I love seeing and hearing the Fulmars on your excellent video.
ReplyDeleteFAsciNating birds Margaret. But oh my gosh be careful out there... That edge of the cliff shot was scary! Beautiful pictures of a wonderful bird spot.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots - really like the one showing just how straight they keep there wings as they fly.
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne
