20th January 2022 Unst NNW5 Overcast

I followed a cold 40 minute seawatch from Lamba Ness with a prolonged visit to Skaw where I flushed 2 Woodcock. With the wind moderating we returned to Skaw this afternoon walking the headland.

Lamba Ness: blue Fulmar & 2 Glaucous Gulls (2cy & 3cy).

Skaw: 2 Great Northern Divers, 12 Purple Sandpipers, 2 Woodcock & 4 Glaucous Gulls (3 2cy & 3cy).

Norwick: 2 Great Northern Divers & 2cy Glaucous Gull.
