7th April 2017 Unst W3

Spent most of the day on Yell were an immature Iceland Gull was seen distantly at Mid Yell. On our return to Unst we saw a pair of Pintail just north of Uyeasound that at the time we assumed were the pair Robbie had seen earlier in the morning at Baltasound being the first for the year. However, as we then drove through Baltasound the pair were still present feeding right where Robbie had seen them. An evening walk around Norwick produced the Pinkfoot, our first Collared Dove of the year and 2 Goldcrests. A pair of Greenfinches, a Siskin and a few Chaffinches were present on our feeders.
