Wool gathering

In Shetland these tufts of sheep's wool caught on fences are called hentitaglets. A lovely word! So far as I know, there isn't an equivalent Orkney word. 
 
Lottie and I walked over to the Sandwick beach this morning.  It took us 2 hrs,  there and back, including 20mins to sit and eat my apple, and enjoy the sound of the waves.

Only one car and one tractor passed us. I saw my first hedgehog of the year, but sadly it was on the road and had been  hit by a car.
