May in Shetland

This week has been very changeable, anything from snow, hail, heavy rain, sun and cold temperatures

The cloud formations at anytime of year add a lot to any photo, the one above looking east towards Bressay

 Looking north towards Littleness at Spiggie

The croft above had just delivered 20 lambs today but this little one only 2 hours old felt the cold until it gained some body heat

Also lots of Shetland Pony foals especially in south mainland

 Had a trip north to Voe, cut short with heavy rain but managed to have a walk through the village

 Interesting to see all the mussel shells on top of an overturned boat

 A view of Scalloway, a regular view on my way to work each morning

This month, on the 17 May 2019 is Norwegian day and a large crowd always gathers for a service to remember the Shetland Bus men that lost their lives during WW2

 Shetland Bus memorial, Main Street , Scalloway

 This building at Twageos in Lerwick may be familiar, it was used as a B&B in the recent BBC1 Shetland drama. This is actually South Ness House built in 1902 and is now up for sale at £525,000

 Always worth stopping to look at the seas at Reawick, the seas are absolutely stunning

 Dramatic skies over Scatness as a storm approaches in May

Jarlsoff, a very popular destination with tourists
