Summer Plummage in the sunshine

 Yesterday news broke of a local White billed diver at West Burrafirth. It was in just about full summer plummage. what a stunner. Unfortunately the light was poor, so, we were pleased it was still there today. It was quite mobile and a pleasure to watch 
































There was some curiosity with other wildlife in the area.







Then we had some bits and bobs on the way home





And when we got home. Mr stinky was in the turning bay. Recognised the peerie knick in his ear.
