Dawn Chorus Birdblog: Quest for the Red-throated Diver

by matching mole

Two weeks ago I lied to you.  I described and showed you my adventures with seabirds on the Shetland Islands.  But not seabirds in kilts.  Or even viking helmets.  Today, in my sequel, I promise paragraphs of unvarnished truth about Scottish seabirds.  Unfortunately there won't be quite as many bird pictures but I will make up for that with some pictures of beautiful landscapes.  Before I resume my narrative on Shetland I must beg your indulgence once again with a small preamble.  Also completely truthful - in fact in it I bare a dark secret of my soul.  But first have some ponies.
