@coplandbear51@birdinglothian Any recent sightings of the WW Scoter or Surf Scoter lately, I'm passing through on my way to Shetland and have missed the WW Scoter on several previous occaissions.
@dunnjons@CR_UK@macmillancancer@NHS_Shetland Great news Jon and all the best for the future, as some one who walks a similar journey I can only emphasise the importance of early diagnosis
Today is the so-called 'glorious twelfth', the start of the grouse shooting season.
Let's see how much support there is on twitter against this sick pastime.
RT if you agree this vile 'sport' has no place in Britain.
And finally for now 4 more Scottish specialities, Dwarf Cornel, Twinflower, Field Gentian and Butterwort. A fabulous trip with lots of new to me Botanical treats still need to process more bird, dragonfly and mosses.
A trip to Scotland with one intent, to see 3 Orchids I'd missed on previous visits Small White, Coralroot, Lesser Twyblade ( had seen on Exmoor) and Lady Slipper in Yorkshire 100% success.
@Birduder344 Glastrum Wood near Oban is always reliable and easy to find if timed right and weather reasonable early June last year never missed them in 3 visits over the years
