17th May

An approachable quintet of Dotterels in a sandy field near Westness was the highlight of an otherwise fairly quiet day. The first Common Tern of the year arrived, a Black-tailed Godwit was with a small group of Bar-tails, a couple of Whinchats included one apparently new bird and a Wryneck was still present at the north of the island. Other non-movers included 2 Tree Pipits and 4 Redstarts.
