            Puffins on Skomer Island, Pembrokeshire

Following on from last year's visit in early June I set off for Skomer Island again to go and see the flying clowns. I'd hoped to catch them in prime sand eel time but think I may have been a week or two too early. 

Whilst I'd love to have that RF 100-500mm lens I just can't justify the cost so am making do with the RF 100-400 which is less than a third of the price, half the weight and probably 85% as sharp. You can see this shot was taken at ISO3200 so it's a testament to the ON1 Photo Raw 2023 'Tack Sharp/De-noise' software to see how sharp this image has come out.
