Stuart Hubbard - Guest Photographer

Gentleman Siskin

 We came into Fair Isle on the weekend of 16th March 2012, and stayed with Tommy, Liz and Henry at The Auld Haa. We - Shetland Film Club - came in to show films at the Fair Isle Hall on the Friday and Saturday night, but Fair Isle is a beautiful spot and it is always great to wander around to take in the sights; the shore in particular always has something of interest. We like to see the birds, although generally we have no idea what they are. On this occasion we were lucky enough to be accompanied by Tommy who said which was which, who was a regular and who was visiting.

And again. Hen seed is just fine

I may or may not be a Dunlin?

Complete with the Northern Lights!
