Another shot from the Farne Islands. This was on the Inner Farne Island, where we got attacked by Arctic terns. They nest right next to the path where all the people from the boat trips walk down, so they attack everyone. We got funny looks from all the pro twitchers/pro photographers when we admitted we hadn't brought hats with us. One guy even had a reinforced hat. We had to make do with wrapping our cardigans around our heads...
