Yet another VEERY on Shetland

Isles of Scilly United 2 Shetland Rangers 3

What a comeback from the 'Gers'! Yet another VEERY has been found on the more accessible island of Whalsay today! A 'flock' of them must have alighted on the Northern Isles over the past few days, with the Foula bird still being present too. There are also special species coming in from the east with a movement of PECHORA PIPITS turning up involving at least three different individuals.

STOP PRESS: For some superb photos of the VEERY and to get a feeling of the atmosphere up north at the moment please see A TALE OF TWO HALVES

About Me

Aye up folks! My name is Adam 'Archie' Archer, a birder from the West Midlands of England where the birds maybe slightly sh*te but the birders are among the best in the World. This is simply a blog about my birding experiences from my beloved Isles of Great Britain. I have been fortunate to see many great birding spectacles from Unst at the highest tip of Shetland to pelagic trips off the coast of the Isles of Scilly. I have also included sightings from around my home in North Warwickshire and my local patch Alvecote Pools a Site of Special Scientific Interest that straddles the Warwickshire & Staffordshire borders. Birding is a great hobby.... so please relax, smile & enjoy it. WARNING: SOME CONTENT MAY OFFEND! PLEASE NOTE THAT ANY COMMENTS LEFT ON THIS BLOG ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE VIEWS OF MY GOODSELF.... SO THERE!
