5 mountains and 1 big birthday part 4 Handa Island 15/05/19

We opted for a less strenuous day by taking a boat over to Handa Island, a Scottish Wildlife Trust nature reserve, home to puffins, great skuas and lots of other other birds and wildlife.
The weather was great again making it even more enjoyable. We walked the four miles around the island path, stopping off to see the puffins nesting in the cliffs. Well worth a visit if the weathers fine, be early as the car park fills up quickly.
