Scilly - day 8 - Jack Snipe

The walk from Penninis had turned up the first Fieldfare from the sea plus a few bits and pieces including Raven and Common Tern. I even found a Yellow-browed Warbler in conifers off the coast path just before Higher Moors.

Higher Moors was to produce another obliging bird in the form of this Jack Snipe - as close as you would want! Not an awful lot of variety .... busy feeding......



Spring loaded bobbing movements luckily not causing motion blur!


Grass or reeds as a backgound.....




Off looking for a comfortable place to snooze!


That will do very nicely!
