On the Farne Island boat trip we did the all day trip to both Staple Island and Inner Farne. You leave from Seahouses on the Northumbria coast. We stayed in Seahouses in a wee cottage.
I got it wrong in my last comment the black and white ones are guillemots.
The gull on the nest with the yellow beak and chicks is a kittiwake.
