The Causeway at Birsay, Orkney

I was reminded this week of the causeway from mainland Orkney to the Brough (island) of Birsay.

The causeway allows access to the island at low tide. You can just see it under the water’s surface to the middle left of the photo above.

At the time of my previous post I didn’t include the video I made of a river of sea water which flowed from north to south under the causeway about halfway across. Below I remedy that omission. Click on the picture to get to the video.
