Surfer at Marwick

Beautiful and sunny this morning in Birsay. Much of The Loons by the hide was iced over so quiet bird-wise, though a couple of ringtail hen harriers flew over as I left. Two glaucous gulls and three surfers at Marwick. and a female peregrine hunting over the cliffs, on which were 1000 plus guillemots. Four herons at Birsay Bay and a song-thrush in the village.
