Your website is not working???  Can't seem to access it....  liz



Earlier today, Hans Toom sent a report on a trip to Sambro Island nine =
of us made yesterday. Here are some photos from the day. (My camera =
hasn't close to the telescopic power of other cameras present, so the =
bird photos are limited.) Any botanical help with the species in images =
22-23 would be appreciated--flowers somewhat resembling Queen Anne's =
Lace, with white heads accompanied by a purplish tinge, but not at all =
the right sort of leaves; and images 24-26, what I'm guessing might be =
Starry False Solomon's Seal. Sedum were plentiful, various in hues and =
formations of clustering. (Not sure if these are different species of =
Sedum, or simply variations of the same.) It seems like another world =
out there, ruled by black-backed gulls, guillemots, arctic terns, water =
& rock & wind. Hard to say how long before the abandoned buildings will =
-- even if the lighthouse is kept operating -- go the way of the dodo.
