The Saltee Islands - the Most Famous Bird Sanctuary in Ireland

Northern gannets seen during a breeding season on The Great Saltee Island. The Saltee Islands, situated around 5km off the southeastern coast of Ireland, are a haven for sea birds, nurturing an impressive array of birds, from Gannets and Gulls to Puffins and Manx Shearwaters. The Islands lie on an important migratory route and are a popular stopping off place for spring and autumn migrating birds. On Sunday, July 15, 2018, in Saltee Islands, County Wexford, Ireland.
