Water

 PA day yesterday, we got out for a bit and got back to working with Mark on his photography skills. We started up again with his favourite. Water shots. There hasn't been much rain but we managed to find a small waterfall with enough flow.







You do have to remember to reset settings afterwards or sheep look a little weird




We did see some mergansers


We also drove around Vidlin and Nesting checking out some suitable burns for later in the year

It's the end of June, so......

 Puffin time!

One of our lovely guests did a super job in the wind, of cycling to us, so, we took him out for the day to chill.


We  started at Sandness, and after 4 years finally had a puffin on the cliff. It's only a small colony.







Then down to Scousbrough Sands, little Spiggie and St Ninians.



Then to Sumburgh for a fabulous session with the puffins.













































S cracking day

Today, there were a few bits at Melby and a family of Wheatears with 6 youngsters.
