Great to be Fair Isle Bird Obs at the right place at the right time when the Obs staff caught & ringed Ortolan Bunting & Arctic Warbler! Thanks to Alex Penn Luke Marriner & Jonny Fisk
Another great day at Fair Isle Bird Obs superb weather but still the good birds are turning up. Barred Warbler & Sibe Stonechat new in & the Tennessee Warbler still hanging on (although elusive for most of the day)
Tennessee Warbler still showing well Fair Isle Bird Obs even though it’s quite mobile & flying between different crofts
Wryneck another new bird in Fair Isle Bird Obs today. Found by the irrepressible team that’s Nina_OHanlon Rob Hughes
Great views of the Wryneck Fair Isle Bird Obs when it moved further south this afternoon & popped up on a garage roof.
One of the nicest guys I had the pleasure to meet. RIP Steve - we’ll raise a glass to your memory when next out with the guys from Hilbre Bird Obs
Like the whole British and Irish Obs family, we are sadden and shocked to hear of the sudden passing of our old friend, Steve Wing, the long-time warden of the Cape Clear Bird Obs . A nicer man you would struggle to find and a real ambassador for Obs work. RIP Steve photo Shay Hunston.
