7th May 2023 Unst SSE5 Fog & Drizzle

I spent the best part of the day guiding cruise passengers around Hermaness albeit the highlight (for me) was a male Snow Bunting present at Baltasound pier. In contrast to the fall of migrants across what seemed like most of Shetland, a walk around Norwick proved disappointingly quiet.

Baltasound: Snow Bunting.

Haroldswick: Arctic Tern & Reed Bunting.

Norwick: 2 Sparrowhawks, Collared Dove, 2 Common Whitethroat & 3 Brambling.
