Shag Rocks
Far away out in the ocean, between Falkland Islands and South Georgia, you can find a cluster of large rocks known as Shag Rocks. There is no vegetation on the six rocks but they are inhabited by thousands of shags. The rocks are almost completely covered by shags, which gave the rocks their name.
The rocks are often hidden in fog and with all the birds flying around it makes the place a little spooky. When we passed them the sea was quite wild and large waves hit the rocks. Better not to come too close! The first person who landed on the rocks was lowered down from a helicopter since it's difficult to get close enough by boat.
A close-up on one relative to the shags at Shag Rocks. I took this photo on the Falkland Islands and I think this shag had found a nicer place to live at compared to the ones living at Shag Rocks.
