Gloup Wildlife

First photo by me, geese in a field next to the car park at The Gloup, Deerness (more on the Gloup later or tomorrow)... Typical for me, only one of the geese has got his head out!


And a photo my brother took of a chick in a nest in the Gloup... we weren't sure what kind of bird (s)he was, and thought it was a bit late in the year to be still sitting there, but we're no experts...
Hey, if Blackbike from Orkney Forums comes along here for a look, he'll be able to tell us!

I'm reliably informed (thanks, BB) that it's a Fulmar chick.
