Sula Sgeir

Sula Sgeir is an uninhabited Scottish island in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is one of the most remote British Isles, and it is most known for its population of gannets. Gannets are birds. I was happy to read that "the flesh of the young gannet" is a regional delicacy.

But this was my favorite sentence:

"St. Ronan's sister, Brenhilda, is supposed to have stayed here for some time, leaving him on Rona, only to be found dead in a bothy with a shag’s nest in her ribcage."
