NORTH RONALDSAY - 22nd August


A moderate westerly wind with some good sunshine replaced the blazing easterly and a walk round the Brides census route produced good views of a Spotted Redshank which I flushed off Kirbest and then again off Brides later on, a distant Peregrine, the juvenile Hen Harrier and 4 Black-tailed Godwits but still no Passerine migrants anywhere.   A two-hour seawatch in the afternoon then just produced 6 Manx Shearwaters and 2 Sooty Shearwaters.
