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.
