This is one of a number of seal pictures my partner took on #Rathlin Island. Can anyone precisely identify the species? I believe these are both Harbour Seals (Phoca vitulinae), but I want to be certain. Thank you for your help :blob_cat:​

The header is a photo of my grandfather, Mickey, working the fields at home at his farm on #Rathlin. This is where my heart was born and where my soul thrives. What makes you feel strong?

Sunset at home, at Maoil na nDreas, on #Rathlin. Breathe.

Lovely to welcome the wonderful @wendyjackmusic over to #Irish #Mastodon - #Dungannon & #Rathlin's finest :)

@johnmee I was quite active as pro European from 2016 on, then have used bird site to be bang up to date with UK politics & Covid - mainly liking & commenting under others not tweeting much. Tweeting mainly #wildflowerhour Sundays & weather & #Rathlin photos. A solid transparent real person account about 1.5K followers - mainly similar to me. I think within a few weeks I can manage without the other place. What abut you?

Tha mi ag ionnsachadh #Gàidhlig an-dràsta agus a' dèanamh SQA Higher. Nuair a bha mi ann am Beul Feirste Dihaoine, cheannach mi leabhar inntinneach (anns a' Chultùrlann McAdam O Fiach) làn de sgeulachdan air a sgrìobhadh ann an Gàidhlig Reachrainn (Rathlin Gaelic), Gàidhlig, agus Gàidhlig na h-Èireann. 'S e am "missing link" a th' ann an Gàidhlig Reachrainn eadar Gàidhlig agus #Gaeilge! 😀 #Rathlin #NorthernIreland #Scotland #Gaelic
