Winter Birding

Very quiet at the moment, even after severe gales and torential rain

This Bar Tailed Godwit was on Grutness beach feeding for a few minutes before flying off south

Lots of Fulmar long the cliffs and in Sumburgh quarries, all very noisy 

Lots of Curlew around on the moor with a flock of 76 in one field with at least 35 Redshank

Hope for more next week but still been a very good year
