"Bird sanctuary on islands off coast of Wales" - the islands in question are Grassholm, Skomer and Skokholm.
There are three references within the shots list to "penguins" on the island. This seems somewhat unlikely just off the Welsh coast! They are instead simply baby birds, perhaps razorbills, (I'm no expert on the subject!).
Judging by the commentary, all the footage in this clip is shot specifically on Skokholm.
