Bigga is an uninhabited island in the Sound of Yell between the Mainland and Yell in Shetland, Scotland. ==Geography and geology== Just over long, Bigga is in size, and is tall at its highest point. Bigga is a long thin island with a "head" and a "torso". The neck is formed by the bays of Wester Hevda Wick and Easter Hevda Wick, "hevda wick" being an anglicisation of the Norn/Old Norse for "seaweed bay". Cattle and sheep were formerly farmed here. The island is split between the parishes of Delting, and Yell.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Bigga Isle )〕 Bigga consists of Moine bedrock of coarsely-crystalline gneiss and quartzite.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bigga, Shetland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
