Hi Michael,
Was on BINS(Irish birdline),and I was speaking to the finder as well,so can't see why it wasn't on Birdguides?Maybe a juv.Redshank is of greater interest..?;-)
Went to Galley this morning:between 7 and 12 we had the following:
2 Great Shearwaters
4 Sooty Shearwaters
6 Balearic Shearwaters("only" saw 4 of these)
22 Bonxies(Great Skuas)
2 Arctic Skuas(Parasitic Jaegers),both pale phase
14 Common Scoters(saw 9)
70+ (European)Storm Petrels...
...but no "soft-plumaged".Not giving up yet!
Most of the birds this morning came quite close,in particular the Sooties and Great Shears.
