Scilly - 4.10.25

 

Short-eared Owl


My first full day started off with the news of a Short-eared Owl crouched down below a hedge on Peninnis escaping the strong winds that had stopped all transport apart from a few helicopters coming in. This was a nice year tick.

The wind was certainly making birding tricky and not much else was noted apart from a Ruff at Porth Hellick pool that joined the phalarope. My only other year tick was a brief Whinchat at Carn Friars.
