4th February 2021 Unst E2 Snowing

Snowing on and off during the morning but more persistent in the afternoon. In order to complete the SOETAG beached bird survey for Norwick I took a walk around seeing a Golden Plover, c.20 Common Snipe, 3 Woodcock, a Moorhen, the wintering male Stonechat, a Fieldfare and 3 Chaffinches.
