Patchwork

wheatear
Visited a few local haunts over the last few days picking up the likes of redstart, ring ouzel, grasshopper warbler, cuckoo, twite and snipe. Migrants are still woefully scarce on the ground so finding anything has been challenging. Went to one of my favourite sites today- Achnahaird- saw 4 GND's, a few golden plover and a colour-ringed ringed plover.
