44 THE SOUTH ISLES. 



The centre is grassy, and the rocks, especially at the north end, 

 extremely sharp and jagged. This much we could see from Bur- 

 wick, in S. Eonaldsay, but as the island lies some distance away 

 from the latter place, and we could not hear that it possessed any- 

 thing particularly interesting from an ornithological point of view, 

 we did not think it worth while personally to visit it.
