I took my one hour walk from home in glorious sunshine, which has been out in clear skies since last Friday. It was very calm as well, very unusual for this time of year.
At the top of our road you can look east over farmland then across Mousa sound to Mousa its self.
Plenty of lambs to look at, always a pleasure to see, some in little plastic jackets. I wonder if they can come up with something else to use, it needs to be cheap, warm and waterproof. I could see a few coming loose and they will end in the sea.
Looking down to Sandsayre the sea was blue, the sky was blue it was just magic.
Only a few gulls on the sea but two Common seals could be seen on the jetty and they didn't want to move as they sunbathed unconcerned.
Lots of Starling, sparrow and Twite singing away. Passing Sand Lodge the landscape became more rough with unimproved grassland although a digger had been cutting channels in what is always a marshy area, just wondering whether the wader population will suffer.
I only saw two dog walkers the whole time i was out, so it would seem people are keeping at home. Lets hope this virus goes as quick as it came, it will be good to venture further a field in Shetland.
