Scilly 2020 - Day 2

Today started well with news of a SEO roosting on Harry's Wall's...


Porthloo beach (always birdy) produced at least a dozen Black Redstarts, Bar-tailed Godwit, Sanderling (3), Ringed Plover, Curlew, Wheatear and a fine female Merlin which dashed across the bay...


I had a walk up to Watermill but nothing of note was seen...lovely spot though...


After lunch we tried Old Town Churchyard and after a good while I glimpsed the hoped for Firecrest. I also added Greenshank, Raven and Redwing. 

The day concluded with me watching at least 50 Swallows feeding over Lower Moors from the digs garden...wonderful!



47 species
