HUDSONIAN GODWIT
FIRST FOR SHETLAND & ME!
Grutness Pool, Shetland
Found by Larry Dalzie
5th record for Britain and 10th record for Western Palearctic
 
Fabulous evening twitch to Grutness Pool at the southern most end of mainland Shetland, for the first Hudsonian Godwit for Shetland and for me!!! My first view of the bird was of it snoozing next to a Redshank. An Oystercatcher then decided it wanted to be the star attraction and stood immediately in front of the Hudsonian Godwit for a while.
 
The Hudsonian Godwit had a good preen and started feeding in the pool at close range. Not in the slightest bit bothered by people standing on the roadside. The light was stunning and there was a supporting cast of Redshanks, Oystercatchers, Turnstones, Dunlins and Pied Wagtails. A Honey Buzzard had been seen too, before I arrived. With a Melodious Warbler on Whalsay and a Little Egret (rare here) on Unst, its been a good July day for Shetland!

THE TALL SHIP RACES – DAY FOUR!

 

Spent all day at The Tall Ships and photographed lots of ships departing today. Rained this morning, sun came out for a bit on and off and then rained again this evening. I didn't stay until 11pm, instead I went to Levenwick Beach to have some quiet time. Photographed cute brown and black bunnies, amongst yellow flowers on the cliffs, Wheatears and Ringed Plovers on the shoreline. Arctic Terns with youngsters on the rocks and two Red-throated Divers on the sea.

Photos added later of the last few days

THE TALL SHIPS RACES – DAY TWO!

After my late night last night and work all day, I was too tired to walk to the harbour and Victoria Pier this evening. It would have been the best day here for visitors and islanders, as the sun shone from dawn until dusk and was probably the hottest day since I arrived here – glittering sea and total blue skies from the hospital ward windows! The Orcas didn't visit Lerwick today, maybe they will tomorrow?

THE TALL SHIPS RACES – DAY ONE!


"Christian Radich" from Norway in the background


As I was getting ready for work this morning, someone brilliantly spotted the 65's pod of Orcas sailing past the tall ships in Lerwick Harbour! Wow, what an incredible bonus for everyone!
Headline Event:
"Orcas visit Tall Ships"

A fabulous and exciting evening after work at Victoria Pier, Lerwick! One of the best night's I've had for ages. Lots of roads have been closed off for the next four days, so I decided to walk from my house, which gave me lots of much needed exercise this evening! The tall ships were truly magnificent! The entire event was brilliantly organised. "Fiddlers' Bid", who are a Shetland based instrumental group, known for playing contemporary arrangements of traditional Shetland fiddle tunes, were insanely good and everyone seemed to have a very, very jolly evening indeed! 🍹🍻 You simply couldn't keep still whilst they were playing, totally infectious!

Live bands, beer tent, food venues, temporary beach on the quayside with traditional deckchairs, funfair, craft, gift and food produce stalls/marquees etc and I haven't even seen the daytime events yet, roll on Friday!

Pictures and videos to come.......
