Nearly went

News of the continuing presence of the SWAINSON'S THRUSH on Barra prompted a phone call to my pal Tony Dixon in Flamborough. After checking weather forecasts (very good) and ferry timetables (not so good) we wimped out! Basically it would have meant 2 overnight drives and 2 days on Barra.

Maybe it will re-locate to the mainland or another will turn up on Scilly...after the 20th of course. Maybe pigs will fly?

I'll content myself with some I saw in Chicago a while ago. My pics were poor so here's a Northern Waterthrush that was walking around my feet!


30,000 hits!...thank you!
