I could keep going with the #Auroraborealis spam ...but I'll finish with this short clip of a blazing burst of light that was overhead at #bayoffirth #Finstown #orkney early on

For much of the peak of the #solarflare the #aurora was right overhead here in #finstown #bayoffirth #orkney #scotland and I saw no less than 5 #shootingstars here's one of them

So the strongest solar storm in 40yrs didn't disappoint us up here in #orkney all the more glorious for a cloudless still night #aurora #merriedancers #northernlights #finstown #bayoffirth #wideford #orkney

Looking across at #cuween #neolithic #tomb #wideford hill #grimbister and #damsay islands in the #bayoffirth #firth #orkney. We've had a wee bit of snow overnight 😍

Looking down on #BayofFirth #Finstown #Orkney you can see #islands #Damsay and #Grimbister video ends with #boggy #peatland our site for #augering #environmentalarchaeology #archaeobotany #palynology revealing #prehistoric #landscapes

Sunrise #dogwalk looking up at #wideford #cairn #orkney from down in the #bayoffirth @orkneyjar website is a great place to find out more about the #neolithic tomb - http://www.orkneyjar.com/history/tombs/wideford/
