Orca

So, there I was quietly taking pictures of one of the still-resident Sumburgh Head pufflings (see the extra) - when the shout of 'Orca' rang along the cliff-tops.

We had some fantastic views of one of the Shetland orca pods as the group (at least 3, probably four - and by one count five) swam slowly North from Sumburgh Head up the east coast.  We followed them (on foot) until they disappeared across the far side of Grutness Voe.
