Oystercatcher sculpture, Flotta, Orkney
The oystercatchers are enjoying the view across Weddel Sound to Fara.

Since Matthew visited 14 years ago, ND3494 : Oystercatchers on Flotta, the chick has stopped riding its scooter and taken up the bagpipes.

This is one of several sculptures made of recycled materials which can be found on Flotta. See also ND3693 : Penny farthing sculpture, Flotta, Orkney and ND3793 : Doodlebug.
