Spotted a Yellow Wagtail in flight from the beach this afternoon and knew exactly where we'd find it - the deliciously muddy edges of the marsh at Glebe. A male of the flava subspecies this time. And then to top it off the Corncrake starting singing in the background!

Then Corncrake for an after-dinner snack 😉 After one arrived last week, we passed by the usual fields many times and never heard a peep. But finally last night we did hear him and his echo, both merrily singing away under a beautiful full moon

Family commitments have meant almost zero birding this year. To get this life ✅ Corncrake in Scotland after 6 days of hunting, hits the spot. None of this jumping up onto walls for easy views 😂. Spotted at 6.15am 🥶. Thanks to Jane Burkey yet again for her limitless patience 😍

Did you know that the corncrake, or traon in Gaelic, used to be known as one of three 'eòin shithe', or 'fairy birds' due to the birds mysteriously disappearing & then reappearing? 🤔

Today we call this migration!

The other two 'fairy birds' were the stonechat & cuckoo.

Outer Hebrides with non-birding parents and friend somehow still produced 123sp. Highlight was 19km hike in Cairngorms bumping into a male Ptarmigan metre away from us. The nearby female - stunning! Also, Golden Eagle, WTE, Corncrake, Red-necked Phalarope, BTD, Ring Ouzel
