About Fumishima
Fumi-shima is an islet 180 metres from the shore near Izumo, Shimane, Japan. It is a nesting place for around 5,000 Black-tailed Gulls each Spring. The islet used to have a shrine dedicated to Homomisaki Jinja. Only the shrine priests were allowed to visit the island so the gulls settled virtually undisturbed.
