Grimsey Island, IcelandJuly 2024We have just returned from a six day photography experience on Grimsey Island with Wild Lens Nature Tours and what fun it was! Not just a great wildlife spectacle but also lots of laughter and good humour aided and abetted by the organisers, David and Kevin. Turning to the wildlife there were the expected masses of puffins but also kittiwakes, fulmars, guillemots, razor bills, eiders, skuas, kittiwakes, redshanks, phalaropes, turnstones, ring plovers, snow buntings, oyster catchers and so much more. We were also fortunate to see the young of eiders, kittiwakes, phalaropes, snow bunting, redshanks and terns. One of our group also photographed a seal carrying in a large freshly caught fish. The weather and light conditions were different each day which gave us lots of opportunities for static and flying bird photography with constructive feedback and suggestions from David and Kevin. Accommodation was in the tiny cottage above the coffee shop overlooking the harbour. This enabled us to watch the massive catches of huge cod being landed every day which will have been one of the reasons for the “fish of the day” on the restaurant menu every evening! It was great to touch base and share information with the group at breakfast and lunch in our accommodation. Overall, an excellent holiday which we shared with an amazing group of fellow photographers - well organised and very enjoyable. We have returned home with a wealth of photographs and many happy memories.
