This brilliant pair of juvenile Little Stints were a lovely surprise on Easter Lother Water this morning. @FI_Obs

At least five Barred Warblers @FI_Obs today. They were mostly at home in the croft gardens but this one found its way down in to Kroga Geo. Seeing migrants on the cliffs never gets old!
This gorgeous Wryneck was caught in Vaadal @FI_Obs mid-afternoon. It's a species I'd wanted to see in the hand for a long time. The cryptic brown plumage is just amazing!
This gorgeous juvenile Red-necked Phalarope spent the afternoon spinning around Da Water @FI_Obs. A typically confiding, often coming within a few feet.
This years class of Arctic Skuas have taken to the air @FI_Obs over the last week. They vary from dark chocolate, to ginger fringed birds. Its great to see them having a successful breeding season.
A seabird summer @FI_Obs. It has been great to see so many species having a productive breeding season.
An incredible experience watching a pod of 6 Orca @FI_Obs yesterday evening. Amazing to watch them skirting the cliffs around Buness before heading south.
A trio of gorgeous Dunlin chicks @FI_Obs. Shortly after ringing and releasing the chicks, one of the adults came over and brooded them just a few metres away!
This lovely Marsh Warbler was heard singing at Chalet this afternoon and later caught. @FI_Obs
Crossbills seem to be omnipresent around @FI_Obs at the moment with high single figures seen most days. The Obs garden is a favoured spot for them, where they occasionally make their way into one of the mist nets, allowing for a rare chance to admire them upclose.
A double whammy! The wind finally dropped enough for us to catch the Great Reed Warbler in the Observatory Garden. Then, a short while later, this lovely Greenish Warbler was trapped in Gully! @FI_Obs
June continues to deliver! A Great Reed Warbler has spent the latter part of today skulking around the Observatory Garden @FI_Obs.
Scops Owl! What a bird to end the day @FI_Obs. Not even an hour after Luke caught a Blyth's Reed Warbler Alex brings this stunner back from Gully. Awesome.
This lovely Nightjar was trapped in Gully @FI_Obs this afternoon. Such weird birds, and a treat to be able to admire up close.
Arctic Terns are back @FI_Obs in force with a number already incubating. They're such an elegant species that are lovely to watch. Fingers crossed they don't have to endure too many challenges and come late summer the colonies are full of noisy juveniles.
Pallas’s Reed Bunting!! I didn’t manage any photos myself but was grateful just to lay eyes on it, which was a challenge itself. A stunning find by Alex!

This gorgeous male Bluethroat was trapped in Plantation this afternoon. Such a nice bird to see up close. @FI_Obs
This Red-breasted Flycatcher was trapped in Plantation on this mornings early trap round. Sadly not a red male but can't complain when they have one of the best tails around. @FI_Obs
This lovely Rustic Bunting was mobile around the ditches between Upper Stoneybrek and Barkland. It saved what was on track to be another underwhelming day for late May @FI_Obs. Hopefully, a change from northerly winds this coming weekend will shake things up a bit.
The lovely male Red-throated Pipit continues its stay on the heather above Wirvie Burn. When not chasing or being chased by Meadow Pipits it can show really well. @FI_Obs
