No power day

 There was no power all day due to maintenance so .no washing or cleaning today. Instead we headed to town for some food shopping but got distracted by a Shetland tick. It would have been too ude not to go!

So we did a detour to Leebitton for a super showy Pectoral  Sandpiper. There were also good numbers of Purple Sandpipers and Dunlin. It was a bit on the chilly side though!



























The afternoon was mainly wet so the cats did what cats do when it's wet.

We also caught the crew of BBC Shetland filming at Voe.
