| The rare Thrush Nightingale in the Auld Haa Garden. At first I hoping it was a Common Nightingale (rarer on Fair Isle, but not in Britain.) This bird is very weakly marked on it's chest, and the ID was not so easy. This is my forth garden tick in 7 years for Thrush Nightingale, still zero for Common Nightingale. |
 |
| A little "Twitch" on going in the garden. |
 |
| Sometimes it looked very plain. |
 |
| The white ring on the bill of this duck had me asking questions? |
 |
| Glaucous Gull? Iceland Gull? - seen from the garden. |

ReplyDeleteIt would really be great to experience canoeing and kayaking in corryvreckan this time. Before, I have gotten the chance to take corryvreckan cruising that was really amazing. I love the scenery.
