Dropped our guest at the ferry

 Our guest, Ed, visited Papa Stour today so we got him to the ferry for 9am. The weather is still good, so although we have things to do at home, we visited a new woodland near Gott for some more Northern Long tailed tits. There were another 4!

It took a while to find them as they weren't actually in the wood. They were in the gardens the other side of the loch.






Still too cute. There were 22 Goldcrests  2 Brambling, 3 Chaffinches, 2 Chiffchaffs and 2 crossbills in or around the wood.





Nearly  forgot, we had a big flock of Fieldfare on the way with a mistlethrush flying around with them.




Then we went for the Steppe Grey Shrike at Spiggie. Best pictures ever- Not!


On the way home we had quite a few redwings. We picked up Ed from the ferry at 4.15pm.


The app for auroras said it could be good tonight so Jill went out early. It didn't do very much but it was cold out there.
