🌊 💙 Not long to wait until the gannets are back!

We'll soon be seeing Les Etacs teeming with life again, just like in these pictures, as the Northern gannets will hopefully start to make landfall again in the coming days. If you're on the island, keep a lookout at Giffoine to see if you can catch that first gannet landing on the rocky outcrop.

Keep an eye out for updates!

The Puffins have returned to their island home of Burhou, just one and a quarter miles northwest of Alderney, ready for their breeding season. 😃 Did you know that Puffins mate for life and are very loyal to their burrows. Young Puffins will choose their mates out at sea, and then find each other in the colony during breeding season. ❤️ You can watch their everyday life on the ALDERNEY WILDLIFE TRUST website: bit.ly/awtpuffincam 🎥Alex Purdie #LoveAlderney #Alderney #Puffins
