Good luck on the Scillies, mate. This weather could drop you something in, but I expect it to be on the Northern Isles 🇺🇸

Just returned from a much needed break to the Shetland Isles (my 14th visit) with @scottmayson.bsky.social and @wallcreeper1.bsky.social

For me, my birding highlight of the trip was watching my 3rd Pallas's Grasshopper Warbler down to 20ft with 7 other birders whilst on Unst.

Whilst birding on Unst, news broke of an Eastern Bonelli's Warbler. The bird performed well to the small crowd present. #RareBirdsUK #UKBirding

Excellent, I was on there, too! It was something rough going out in the morning, but by mid afternoon, it had calmed down somewhat. The FEA'S in the wake for 90mims was pretty cool, which was then joined by a Wilson's Petrel

Congratulations to William Brame @landguardbirder.bsky.social for realising this was a different white butterfly. Now confirmed by @chrisvanswaay.bsky.social as a Southern Small White - the first seen in England. As it is a female let's hope it has been laying eggs. @matthewberry.bsky.social
