Copinsay

A day out with the RSPB helping by staying out of the way and having a nice walk. Beautiful for most of the day and only grey on the return. I've been a couple of times before, though not to Corn Holm which is only separate from Copinsay at high tide. A few miigrating songbirds like wheatear, robin and blackbirds. Bonxies on the grassland and hundreds of guillemot and kittiwakes were on the cliffs, about 25 puffins, over 80 purple sandpipers etc. The first arctic skua of the year was another highlight.
