We can always see Gt Northern Divers in Shetland
we get more in winter but also a few in summer and that means in breeding plumageThere were 4 birds at West Voe, Sumburgh, all different plumages and one bird calling
In the US they are called Loons
It is always good to find a good bird and there is plenty og opportunity in Shetland to do this.
I had only just entered the quarry at Quendale when this Bluethroat appeared over to the left and spent 5 mins working away to get to a manure heap but was then chased off by a wheatear.
