Wobbly startrails

So I have made a few attempts make star trails, and I’m quite pleased. However I'm getting kind of random wobbles of the stars, i first thought it was dew on the lens, but that has been ruled out. It really shouldn't be vibrations as the mount is standing on the lawn and i don't go near it except when setting of the camera (i have it set to take 10 30sec exposures with a 10sec delay after pressing the button).

The set up is a Canon EOS 600D (18-55) on an EQ-2 mount without a telescope and legs retracted.

Is it atmospheric disturbans or indeed vibrations?..

Oh and there was no wind at all when both pics were taken.
