Meticulous recording of the island’s birds since 1987 led to the island’s own individual bird report in 1997, similar to those of the islands of North Ronaldsay and Fair Isle.

The first copies of the 2022 Report will be available in early January 2023 – each with an original colour-sketch of a species seen that year. Price £5 including cover illustration.

Thanks to all who have supported our venture, particularly those who have reported unusual sightings to us, and all who have allowed us and our guests access to their land.
