Scilly day 20 - St Mary's - Black Redstart

After a pretty uneventful  walk around the garrison, where Firecrest was the only highlight, called in at Little Porth where a Crossbill over took me by surprise but no surprise to see the Black Redstart still working the length of the beach there ....

On the rocks....


Or the boats?


All were suitable launch pads!



A possible 'Tawny Pipit' came out on the radio to capture my attention! Problem was, in the field normally frequesnted by the Blyth's Pipit!
