Not much happening on the birdwatching front, so I went to Eshaness, to watch the waves..

Theres been a really big gale blowing on shetland for a few days now..

Quote from Fiona.. Thank God I'm not on the boat! Gales -yuck, bad enough here without being on the high seas! It left Shet 17:30 Mon, Abdn harbour closed so diverting to Rosyth, arr 20:30. 27hrs, poor souls!!

And its still blowing..

I was out at the south end o the island looking for birdies. but thought you might like to see the waves at Grutness [near sumburgh head]

I had to sit down on a boulder or the wind would have blown me over, the visibility was awful wae the sea salt everywhere..
