We've just returned from a holiday on Skye and the only wildlife I spotted were two rabbits and a pheasant, and these were in the garden of the B&B we were staying in.
LOL, it's often like that, especially in a nature reserve in our experience - the one place you can almost guarantee to see no wildlife of note.
Where were the photos of the sea birds and the seals taken?
It was on Staple Island, part of a disjointed trip of ours that ended up as a series of day walks. More pictures
here, that boat trip is great value.
