The South Bishops Lighthouse looking impressive in the setting sun on our trip with Ffi and Ben a few nights ago @Falcon Boats

Saturday 22 June saw us sailing from Neyland on board Celtic Wildcat. Many thanks to everyone on board, our Skipper Nick, not forgetting the Wildlife, for a lovely day with the added bonus of blue skies and seas. Seabirds were the order of the day In South Haven, Skomer, there were lots of Puffins, ledges full of Guillemots etc , and a Fulmar having a Puffin for breakfast, next to Grassholm (third largest gannet colony in the UK), As always the diving Gannets were spectacular. Onward to The Smalls Lighthouse, the Celtic deep ( where we saw Manx Shearwaters) , returning to stop in North haven at Skomer for Puffins and Tea ( not to literally !! ) before looking at Skokholm on our return journey. Seals were also spotted in a number of places. Thrown in were just a few Myths and Legends some of doubtful origin me thinks !!. I would point out photos were taken with a telephoto lens and cropped (Zoomed in)

Thanks to Ffi and Ben (Falcon Boats)for a lovely evening boat trip around Ramsey island. The Atlantic Grey Seals are now 'back' in good numbers and 'Pups' have been born. Harems are set up and 'Beach masters' on patrol (Bull seals) @Falcon Boats

Yesterday (24August) was a very very well supported 'Open day' with the St Davids RNLI. Lovely to see three 'old' ex Lifeboats visiting St Justinians for the event. After a Launch of the St Davids Inshore and all weather boats a small parade of the 5 boats present took place. Congratulations and thanks to everyone (and the boats) who took part and for the TEA and CAKE provided by the Ladies. Especially the Banana cake, the chocolate brownies, the jam sponge and.........

Some more Butterflies from yesterday

Nevern today to see the 6th Century St Brynoch's Church complete with a 700 year old 'bleeding' Yew tree in the avenue of Yew Trees and the 'Pilgrims Cross' Well worth a visit not just for the history but it is a lovely place as well especially with the flowers in the area in bloom

Quite a few Butterflies about today

There was a really nice 'round of applause' from the crowd as the St Davids Lifeboats and crew visited Solva last (01/08/2019)
