23rd August 2021 Unst S2 Overcast

Another early visit to Skaw produced a Greenshank on the beach and a Willow Warbler. Lamba Ness added a Pied Flycatcher. A walk around Norwick produced my first Tree Pipit of the Autumn, 4 Willow Warblers, my first Wood Warbler of the year and another brief encounter with the Common Rosefinch. Burrafirth was playing host to 4 Willow Warblers and a walk around Haroldwick produced a Garden Warbler and a Willow Warbler. Despite being absent during two visits to Norwick beach the Bonaparte's Gull was back plunge-diving just offshore from 6pm.
