Island 484 - Skeo Ness 2, Lunna, Shetland

Skeo Ness 2 is a small uninhabited tidal island located 50 metres to the south of Skeo Ness 1 and cut off from it at high tide.  The gap between the two islands is covered in orange/brown seaweed, which means the island is cut off at every high tide.  Skeo Ness 2 is round in shape and no more than about 25m in diameter.  It is closely grazed by sheep.
