Guillemots at 36m are becomng a normal sight!!
Would be a challenge to all of us up here to run a wildlife trip, butI am sure it would be good fun.

It was the bit about Scapa that suprised me and pleased me the most on my visit - the amount of life on the wrecks. Holding my breath on a swim-through on the Koln that was stuffed with fish. Almost reminiscent of the glassfish in the Carnatic!
Plus after years of trying to see baskers in Cornwall we saw two in Scapa.
A wildlife trip up there would be a very interesting proposition at the right time of year.
