It was back to St.Agnes today in the hope of seeing the Mourning Dove. An early boat went across at 8am and they all went up to Troy Town farm to view the field it’d been seen in the day before. After a couple of hours and no sign people wandered off leaving one man standing. It was just a couple of minutes after everyone had left that the bird flew in, hung around for a couple of minutes then flew off. 2 sightings over 2 days and only 3 people had seen it!
The next boatload arrived and duly stared into the field for 6+ hours but no dove. It was beginning to feel personal! Only my 2nd ever Scilly Marsh Harrier was seen flying towards Samson, a Black Redstart on Periglis Beach and the Turtle Dove again.
