In Search of Puffins

Somehow, the word got out amongst my friends on board ship, that I was very fond of puffins. It was only logical that a few of us would go by boat to the islands west of Stykkishólmur in search of the interesting creatures.

 
A visit to these islands is reward enough. The fantastic Icelandic skies make up for lack of vegetation.

 
Unusual rock formations.

 
Many islands provide nesting places for a variety of bird life.

Thank you for leaving a comment. I always try to post a comment on your blog, but am having problems with some of the blogs accepting my comments. (My own blog will not allow me to comment.) Hoping this is resolved soon.
