Royal Navy frigate, HMS Montrose has just paid a visit to Gough Island, a World Heritage Site, while on patrol in the South Atlantic.
Gough Island, one of four islands that make up the British Territory of Tristan de Cunha, is home to thousands of birds who share it with two members of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and six employees of the South African Weather Service.
The island is named after Captain Charles Gough, the commander of HMS Richmond, who visited it in 1731.
Gough Island was made a World Heritage Site because of the vast number of rare birds found there including the Tristan Albatross and Atlantic Petrel.
