I went to Ystiklettur today with Ingvar and we cheched out on the Shearwaters ... and ohhh my gooood... there are chicks now at all stages, we even found a squeeking egg, it must be a matter of minute/hours before it hatches :) it was the cutest thing, hearing the chick from the inside of the egg... I had to put my hand in all the burrows and i got really really dirty haha... Then I had to let the birds bite me a bit so I could get a firm grip on the beak and then pull them gently out of the burrow... amazing :)

There are more pictures HERE :)
