I went to the ruins past the last house, set up my tripod with camera mounted, then attached my camo. kagoul to the auld wall..
Then it started to rain, and it was a very chilly wind..
Then my attention was raised by ravens up on the moor, they were mobbing the buzzard..
I watched them for a while, hopeing it would fly closer to me, but it did'nt, it settled down on the moor..
Then a car pulled in, I thought it must be birders, but it was'nt, it was two tourists who were up to see up helly aa..
Then the crofter arrived with his trailer, unloaded his quad bike, loaded up a small trailer with fence posts and his two dogs who were quite boisterous..
The tourists moved their car to let him by, and promptly bogged the car in the mud..
Because of all the noise and people moving about, I knew I had no chance of the buzzard getting close to me..
So I put my gear together, and made my way back to my car..
The following pics were taken a long way off..
For the people that know the area, I was at the ruins on brough rd. the buzzard was beyond the track to the radar mast..
