West Wales island home to tens of thousands of puffins and shearwaters is a star of the veteran broadcaster’s new BBC series Wild Isles
The sky was bright blue, the sea deep green and flocks of puffins whizzed alongside the boat bringing the first tourists of the season following in the footsteps of Sir David Attenborough to the island of Skomer.
Skomer is, undoubtedly, one of the stars of the BBC’s Wild Isles series and the Attenborough effect is expected to swell the number of people who this spring and summer venture across from the south-west Wales mainland and clamber up the 87 steps from the jetty.
