I love to walk in this landscape and the wild life here is, Wow. Vary different to were you live which I most say is beautiful as well

The cliff tops would be a nice place to play that flute of your. There are common and gray seals here and if you whistle softly they sometime answer you, So! A flute, would be fun I bet they may injoy it.

This is your back garden? Way cool! I've seen a number of documentaries on this area and time period, which are very interesting. It's also cool to see these "non-mainstream" videos as well, which show a lot of amazing things and views that the studio productions don't. Nice work!
