Lundy is a small British island, marking the point where the Atlantic becomes the Bristol Channel. It’s a lovely destination for wildlife lovers, as it’s a breeding site for many seabirds, including puffins. The waters surrounding it have been protected for 40 years, making it one of the best spots for diving in the UK.
Here are a few photos from my trip there a few years ago.

LEARNING THE CRAFT OF NATURE AND WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
This is my diary of the wildlife where I live in Oxfordshire, and sometimes the places I visit. I am a 18 year old young naturalist with a passion for British wildlife, especially Badgers and Hares. I have been blogging since May 2013 and you can read my old blog posts at www.appletonwildlifediary.blogspot.co.uk

What a lovely protected place for wildlife. Great photos too. 🙂
Thanks! Hope you’ll be able to visit there sometime – it’s a little oasis!
I’ve never been there myself but the conservationists sure know how to look after that place. Some very delicate decisions have had to be taken in order to look after their precious seabird colonies, for instance. Our lands have been altered so radically over the years, in that we now need to land manage more than ever before. At risk of sounding like a politician need but the phrase “together we can make a difference” has never been a truer description, when it comes to modern day nature conservation. Do you agree with my take on this, or am I way off track here?
Kind Regards

Yes, they’ve been proactive in protecting the seabird colonies. Their rat eradication programme seems to have been very successful at helping breeding seabirds.
I know that a couple of the Isles of Scilly are now trying to eradicate rats as well, for the benefit of seabirds.
Tackling these problems on the mainland becomes much more complicated…
