"Shatland - a paradise for b ..." a Shetland Travel Page by wroclawiak

I spent only four days on the main island but the Shetland islands deserve staying longer. I think the Shetland islands are a very good destination for bird lovers. Some wild seabirds are nesting so close to walking paths that you can have a look at their nests. Some of them are attacking you defending their babies. I was beeing attacked by skuas three times although I didn't see their babies hidden in the grass. One of the air attacks was a kind of kamikaze attack. One of the birds hit me. Ironically if they didn't attack me I didn't know that they have babies. I am not a bird expert and I didn't know that they are nesting in the grass not at the cliffs as other birds. Now I know. I respected their family instinct and tried to keep myself away from the babies as far as I was able to but sometimes it was impossible.

You will be astonished how many attractions can offer the Shetland Islands :
archological sites, nature reserves, good food and very nice people.

Come to Shatland to see nesting puffins. They are so funny that you can looking at them for a few hours at the time and you don't get bored.

Shetland can offer you beautiful landscapes and famous archological sites.
