| 2 Sunny Siskins in the garden today |
It's good to be back on Isle, but it seems I missed a few good birds... Mostly the elusive Great Grey Shrike that I still need for my list! Plus, a pod of Orcas (Killer Whales) were seen 4 out of the 10 days we were away... ouch! Not much new to see today... but a nice day to be outside for yard work. The Twite & the House Sparrows kept me company and about noon 2 Siskin dropped in for a long lunch.

This Pied Wagtail was ringed...
Some of the other birds seen on the South Harbour Beach today while searching for the Hawfinch briefly seen in my garden by Will (Asst. Warden and head bird ringer) The bird was most likely spooked by that Merlin seen resting on the stone wall near the Haa while looking for it. I dipped it in my own garden... Ouch again! |
