| I have never been as busy as these last few months on Shetland, loving every minute especially after such a long Winter! From Red-throated Diver at close quarters . . . . |
 |
| and with a tiny chick in tow (under license) . . . . |
 |
| Flying over the Isles such as Muckle Flugga! with good friends from Zurich in their private plane & the 'Shetland Nature' crew . . . |
 |
| Getting into my Hoverflies in a big way with a couple of Shetland firsts! (as well as a new Soldierfly for Shetland!) all in our own sheltered & well vegetated town garden! |
 |
| Getting my annual Puffin fix . . .this time on my favourite Isle, Fair Isle - where this Puffin brought me a flower . . . |
 |
| Photographing and enjoying aerial pursuits of common breeding species such as the graceful Arctic Tern . . . |
 |
| Visiting the stunning botanical site of the 'Keen of Hamar' on Unst to see species such as this Frog Orchid and tiny Moonwort . . . |
 |
| and walking alongside the cliffs dotted with nesting Fulmar . .and at this time of year surrounded by Sea Pinks in flower (thirft) finding new and exciting places and wildlife, all on my doorstep. |
