NORTH RONALDSAY - 11th August


A stunning day with plenty of sunshine and light winds with only a couple of early morning showers to mention; walked the Hooking census route which started off with 2 Black Redstarts at the cattle grid in Nouster before other birds included a smart juvenile Hen Harrier cruising over the loch and 2 Black-tailed Godwits with the usual big flock of Lapwings, Golden Plover and Redshank.   My first Short-eared Owl of the autumn was floating over Ancum in the evening.
