Hi. All..

Yesterday I had to get out, two days in, is not good for anyone..

So, where to go..

Eshaness sounds good to me, on a lovely day like yesterday..

So I set off.. But first, I had to check Yell sound for whales.. [ nothing seen ]
 
As I past Garths voe, I saw a Heron feeding and a few Mergansers..

Next stop was at Brae, stocked up with provisions at the coop, then it was onward..

Next stop was Punds water, I stopped at the parking spot, and took my old camera, and left the car..

Then I took a few photos of the Loch.. the reason I used my old camera was, it means I don't have to change lenses..

The Loch..





Then I spotted what I thought might be an interesting photo, it was just the long grass at the side of the Loch..



Then it was onward..

Next stop was at the Twart Burn, there was a flock of Twites here, but they told me not to take their photo, strange we birds, I did'nt realise they could speak  ;D

The Burn..





Then it was time to get going, just before Zoar, another flock of Twites were all lined up on the fence..

I stopped, got out the car and your've guessed right, they all flew off, but I did get some photos of some wild-plants.. Sheeps Bit and Cats Ear..

Cats ear..



Cats ear & Sheeps Bit..



Then it was time for a bite to eat, so I stopped at Braewick cafe, and had a wee blether with Christina, finished eating and headed to the Lighthouse..

But first stopped at Breckon water, [ also called the Loch o the Gaet ]

Brecken Water..





Then I saw another large flock of Twites, at least 20 of them..

Then one of my sons drove up to me, he was going to Framgord Loch, at the lighthouse, we had a wee blether, then he had to go, this fishing bug is hard to beat..  ::)

Then it was back home again.. lots of photos to sort out, then to select the ones for this wee Blog..

Hope you enjoyed my day out.. I did ..
