We are Elaine and Jim Lennon, and we have been visiting Bardsey for a week or so every year since the 1980s. However, for a long time now we’ve wanted to over winter on the island and experience the place at a different time of year when they are less people and boats, in order to experience the highs and lows of island life for longer than our usual stay. Through a combination of quitting our jobs and early retirement we are now lucky enough to do this.
Friends and family are keen to hear about our exploits, and with this blog we plan to share our experiences. These are likely to be a mix of our volunteer work on conservation tasks on the island and winter jobs at the Bardsey Bird & Field Observatory where we are staying in Cristin, bird news and our everyday exploits and challenges.
Diolch yn fawr iawn
