Click, Click

Glorious sunshine again after work, just a quick walk around Clickimin and Helendale, not a lot about, apart from 2 Wood Pigeons in Helendale.

Surprise

Got home from work at 06:45 to bright sunshine and a flat calm sea at Scatness, a quick scan of the sea and 5 Common Scoters, 19 Great Northern Divers and an Otter all showing pretty well from the sitting room window - pretty good end to a 9 hour shift !

Hell 'n' Dale 'n' That

Now that it's light enough in the morning to go birding after work, I've been checking Helendale, Clickimin and Seafield before the 9 O'clock bus home. This week was a bit like being back south, with 2 Blue Tits, 2 Great Tits, a Sparrowhawk, 2 Wood Pigeons and 3 Chaffinches in Helendale. Seafield a bit disappointing with just a few Redwings and Blackbirds.
