So September came and went and it presented us all with some really achievable results . The far reaches of the country were the places to be in the North Shetland and its associated islands held some very magnetic species as we progressed in to October.

And at the other end The Scilly isles had more more equally drawing birds for the crowds, and the rarities on both sets of Islands were stunning. For me however with builders ripping the place apart, ish! It was to be local stuff or the west and or East coast that was the draw, and with around 120 Grey Phalaropes in country surely must be able to hook up with one soon??
