Þorlákshöfn is an unassuming little town on the south west coast of Iceland. One sunny day we stopped by the coast simply to eat our picnic lunch. Despite the wind, we enjoyed a clear sunny sky, a view of the calm sea and the sound of birds flying back and forth. It seemed that the birds were catching food for their young babies and hurrying back over our heads to find them. Their chirping made a magical soundtrack to our lunch.
