The Birds of Shetland 2012

This is a collection of the birds I have photographed on The Shetland Islands in 2012
Shetland is a very good stopping point for birds migrating from Scandinavia to southern Regions it is also gets good numbers of scarce Vagrants Some from America in Westerly winds other from as far afield as Siberia in Easterlies hence the wide range of birds in this Gallery
