'Pulled this one out of the bag'. Near-pristine individual. Research on the shearwater guide found that a dusky/dark nape (vs narrow white nape collar) is not a reliable way of ageing a juvenile. Photos Joe Pender
Pleasant day out to Seven Stones. Shearwaters: Great, Sooty (7), Balearic, Manx (4). Grey Phalarope, Bonxies. 20ish Common Dolphin
Y'day's Scilly pelagic scored Big 3 with 4 more Wilson's, 37 Cory's, 3 Great Shear. This record breaking year for Scilly continues.
Five more Wilson's off Scillypelagics y'day eve. Conservative running total for 2017 = 110+
The Sabine's show with 8 y'day eve. Also a full support cast with Wilson's, Cory's & Great Shearwaters. Lots of commoner birds too.
Wilson's Bonanza y'day eve 20+. Dictionary definition of Bonanza = a large amount of something desirable.
Getting intimate with seabirds on Scilly Pelagics. Wilson's Storm-petrel from y'day eve's trip +++ 2 Cory's & plenty of usual suspects.
For non FBers, a couple of shots of Wilson's from y'day eve (5 seen at least)
Best ever photos of Fea's Petrel in British & Irish waters (Joe Pender). Yesterday's Scilly Birder Special Pelagics.
