A few bare branches penetrated the vegetation. It was my luck to see a sleek-looking bird, a Cedar Waxwing, on one of the exposed branches.
There were eight to ten waxwings hopping from branch to branch, bush to bush, snatching old berries, and making high-pitched whistling sounds. This one had a full black mask, but no red tips on its wings, indicating it was a first-year bird.

On Unst, Shetland’s northernmost island, a striking Viking longhouse and ship replica offer a vivid glimpse into Norse life and legacy.
Unst is believed to be the first landfall of Vikings in the North Atlantic, and today it boasts the highest density of rural Viking sites in the world—over 60 longhouse remains have been identified across the island. The Viking Unst Project, centered in Haroldswick, brings this history to life through two captivating reconstructions: a 9th-century longhouse and the Skidbladner, a replica of the famed Gokstad ship.
The longhouse, built using traditional materials and techniques, stands as a tactile interpretation of Norse domestic architecture. Its turf walls, timber frame, and central hearth evoke the communal warmth and practicality of Viking living. Visitors can explore the interior freely, gaining insight into how families cooked, slept, and gathered in these elongated, multifunctional spaces. The reconstruction draws on archaeological findings from three key Unst sites—Hamar, Underhoull, and Belmont—each revealing layers of Norse settlement from around 1025 to 1220.
Just steps away, the Skidbladner rests beside Harold’s Wick, its sleek silhouette echoing the seafaring prowess of Viking explorers. Modeled after the Gokstad ship discovered in Norway, this replica showcases the craftsmanship and navigational ingenuity that enabled Norse expansion across Europe. With its clinker-built hull and graceful curves, the ship is both a tribute to Viking engineering and a symbol of their adventurous spirit.
Together, the longhouse and ship form a compelling open-air museum, accessible year-round and free to explore. They’re not just static displays—they’re immersive storytelling tools, anchoring Unst’s identity in its Norse heritage. Whether you’re tracing the footsteps of settlers or marveling at maritime design, these reconstructions offer a tangible connection to a time when Unst was a frontier of Viking ambition.
I will be visiting my homeland (São Miguel Island, Azores) mid summer and needed a wide angle lens, considered the Olympus PRO 12-40mm 2.8 but there was a sudden drop on the price for the Fuji and I couldn't resist :-)) I opted for the Fuji and their kit lens (which is supposed to be really good ) and now gives me a wider FoV for my Legacy lenses. I hope I don't regret my decision !

If there are a bunch of stilts around, I'm taking lots of pictures of stilts. Cool looking birds.
...From McNary NWR on a day, back in May, when there were tons of stilts around.
NB: Not captive. Seen on garden patio tiles.
Curious looking characters the weevils are. These beetles with their elongated snouts and myriad forms are truly unique.
This is Eurhynchus quadrituberculatus within family Brentidae, with non-elbowed antennae. Xylophagous, with the larvae being fungivorous.
One sleek weevil.
Length around 20 mm.

This was the wonderful hood / bonnet ornament on a beautiful old Jaguar XK150. It was one of two glorious old cars that pulled up in the car park of Tower Hill reserve near Warrnambool in Victoria. The other was an old Aston Martin DB 2/4.
Although this is a full colour shot, it came out as black and white once I slid the background out of the shot with a big contrast boost.
Happy Slider Sunday!
