A new wildlife tour business is being launched in Shetland to capitalise on the growing trend for outdoor and activity holidays.
Shetland Walking and Wildlife is run by tour guide and author Graham Uney who is in the process of relocating from the small west coast island of Canna to Shetland.
Uney has written two books on the northern isles ("A Portrait of the Northern Isles" by Halsgrove Press, and "Walking in Orkney and Shetland" by Cicerone Press), as well as countless magazine features focusing on the natural world in Shetland.
He said he was confident of being able to bring something new to the market.
