Okay, hoping not to tread on any of the Scillies birders toes but have just noticed that The Isles don't have their own slot on the Local Patch Thread. So here it is, feel free to join in!
Things starting to hot up now on the magic islands ready for autumn. Wouldn't say conditions have been perfect so far and the birds probably reflect this right now. Just need a big system from far west to move in. With the recent SEerlies in the north sea and some good stuff over on the east coast of these might well filter through too!
Last weeks Hudsonian Whimbrel and Citrine Wagtail has not been seen recently but there is a scattering of scarce species on the islands with Buff-breasted Sandpiper on Tresco with a Wryneck. St Agnes a Pec Sand whilst Samson has an Icterine Warbler.
Cheers. Henerz.
Could anyone tell us how much the boatmen are charging this year, thanks in advance.
Hi Paul,
Thanks. I just wondered how much it had gone up- it seems to go up every year!
I go most years, seems the years I miss are the good ones!
Can't wait til the 11th, I love the place- ticks or not.
Hows a Donny fan end up "down south". lol
