Wednesday wildlife – watching you watching me

Wednesday, December 8, 2021 (9:30 AM)

Our weekly selection of photographs from site director Nick Card.

A festive sight! Robin on a branch.

Basking on its favourite rock.

Common seal keeping an eye on the photographer.

Short-eared owl watching and waiting.

Flock of golden plovers over the Ring of Brodgar.

Goldfinches.

After a vigorous preen, a good stretch.
