Very 'Tystie'
The local Black Guillemot's (or 'Tystie's) were performing very well this morning! Constantly calling and chasing each other among the rocks of South Yell... Also seen this morning was a migrating imm Glaucous Gull heading North, and a few Wheatears including a singing male!

Poser!
Cleans up rather well!.... This Glaucous Gull is the same bird as in the previous post (honest....), but looking a bit nicer today!
Also seen today; 2nd Winter Iceland Gull at Burravoe, and a calling GN Diver on the East coast of Yell. The only sign of Spring in Burravoe today has been the first local LBB Gull of the year!

Gulls, Gulls, and more Gulls.....
On a wet and windy Shetland day, I could think of nothing better than a trip to 'Shetland Catch' to see what was hanging about! I wasn't to be disappointed either, with 2 Kumlien's types, 29+ Iceland Gulls, 1 Glaucous Gull. As a bonus, the 4 Long-eared Owls were still hanging about in Lerwick too...
