This photo was taken from the steep slopes on the northern side of Eilean Mhuire of the Shiant Isles. The hillside here is pitted with hundreds of puffin burrows. In the distance you can see Garbh Eilean, which is also home to a large colony. Someday I want to camp on the grassy plateau you can see on the far right of Garbh Eilean to watch as 100,000 puffins fill the evening sky.
