Last month, on our final day in Shetland, I found myself mesmerised by the lively Sanderlings on St Ninians's beach.
As usual, I couldn’t resist taking far too many photos of these energetic little birds. Watching them dart around like wind-up toys, chasing the tideline, was a delight. I got down on my belly, letting them approach me naturally, capturing some intimate shots. It’s incredible to think that these tiny shorebirds were already on their journey back from their Arctic breeding grounds. The connection between the Arctic and Shetland, bridged by these amazing birds.
More stories and images from this trip will be coming soon.
