30th January 2019 Unst Calm and clear

A bright sunny day but with a dusting of overnight snow persisting all day. Walking a few flowing ditches resulted in seeing c.30 Common Snipes. A walk to Valyie and back produced almost the same birds as yesterday including the European White-fronted Goose and Dunnock!
