Not a bad day on St Mary’s. Started the day on the Garrison and saw 4 Firecrest and a Yellow-browed Warbler. Went for a wander for the rest of the day and saw Short-toed Lark at the turning circle on the airport and a Snow Bunting nearby and then finished the day with Short-eared Owl and Blyth’s Pipit on Peninnis Head.
