At last some good weather and a super day at sea with Voyages of Discovery. This morning we went off shore to the Island of Grassholm and the Smalls Lighthouse.. The Gannet colony at Grassholm was as active and impressive as always, also lots of Pufiins, Kittiwakes, Manx Shearwater and Common Dolphins etc. Also the odd Great Skua, Whimbrel and a flock of Dunlin passing through signifying either the end of summer or a mixed year of weather confusing migratory birds. In the order of 150 Atlantic Grey seals around the Smalls lighthouse. Also a very brief sighting of probably a Minke whale. This afternoon was taken up with the annual around Ramsey Island rowing race and RNLI St Davids Lifeboat launch. Thanks to VOD, skippers crew and passengers for a really great day out.
