Coast next to the Osar youth hostel in North Iceland in June 1997, on the black peninsula there were many sea lions, the black dots on the shore are some, but most were lying lazily on the shore, their favorite activity, as the host said. I was walking down to the shore when I was attacked by birds nesting on the meadow; they struck my head with their wings. Also, I almost stumbled over a nesting greylag goose on the path.
