Talk:Farne Islands
From Academic Kids
Needs more on:
- earlier setlement - who and when
- St Cuthbert (??!!)
- have added a little
- Origins of word, geology, they are not Lindisfarne (but may be geologically the same structure??)
- what the boat trip visitors get - should probably be here not Seahouses.
- no, that's not right - the Seahouses bit is not excessive and is relevant there - it's that that something better and more comprehensive about the boat trips should be in here, as well as the Seahouses stuff which is just a summary.
- how many islands and their size and spread, and distances from the mainland
- shipwrecks
- several hundred, if I remember the statistics correctly
- lighthouses
- what's the white stuff down the cliff??
- wildlife
- added; more to come
- is that right about the rabbits and puffins??
- more or less!
- oh, I don't know, loads of other stuff!
- the flight to Australia!

I don't remember the name of the exact island my picture was taken on. It was one with a zig-zag path with nesting Arctic Terns that attempt to peck you (at least during that season...). If anyone knows, please make my caption more specific. Stoive 01:03, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
