Last week I visited West Point Is an outer Island off the north west corner of the West #Falklands. They have a beautiful colony of #albatross, only youngsters left at this time of the year. All waiting for the westerly winds to help them on their first flight.

An owl obviously spotted something to eat even in the snow. They are wonderful creatures, but they don’t take prisoners!

Whilst on the beach at Weddell Island we were stalked by this Pilot Whale for the 2 hours we spent there. I wonder if the splashing and shrieking from the kids attracted the whale to us. The rest of the pod were further out playing. #falklandislands #Pilotwhales

This is a brilliant short video showing penguins possibly chatting about the best fishing grounds. #PenguinAwarenessDay
The rockhoppers on the left are heading out to sea, the ones on the right are heading back to the rookery having been out at sea. I love the conflab they have when they meet... and the confused penguin at the end!! 😂 #FalklandIslands #Falklands #RockhopperPenguins

Male elephant seals fighting over the best spot on the beach. A few months ago they were fighting over females which is much more violent and bloody. Notice the Sea Lion pup who nearly gets run over! #falklands #falklandislands

UKOTA Friday Fact: #FalklandIslands sheep numbers: 490,113 (153 per inhabitant – the highest rate in the world – more than Australia or NZ). Lots of penguins too but that's for another week :-) #UKOverseasTerritories @FalklandsinUK @FalklandsRepUK

At last! After years of trying we've got these wildflowers growing in the Wildlife Area. Grown from locally collected seed and carefully outplanted to appropriate habitats we hope they might set seed for next year. # FalklandsGrownWithNature
