Description
I took this photo from the column looking out over West Kirby village to Hilbre Island. The sun slipped behind the horizon and turned the sky pink, leaving the island in silhouette and the wind farm in relief.
Hilbre Island is an island off the coast of West Kirby, now a conservation site, it has a rich history and is an important site for migrating birds.
No one lives on the island now and you have to walk over when the tide goes out, making sure you know when high tide is so you can time your return to walk back safely. You will find atlantic grey seals behind the island and Red-throated divers, Guillemots, Great Crested Grebes, Common Scoter, Sanderling, Starlings, Skylarks, Goldcrest, Chaffinch and Goldfinch. Dolphins and Wales have been seen off the coast too.
