Finding this cracking 1CY Isabelline Shrike with @scottinscilly.bsky.social at Carn Friars was a nice unexpected early birthday present today on a Scillonian day trip. The 9th Scilly record, it ended up giving prolonged views for the masses in the area around Porth Hellick Beach! #UKBirding

Winters past, a black and white raptor hovering over the Norfolk Broads was most likely a Rough-legged Buzzard; in recent years it is more likely to be a Black-winged Kite as the former species short-stops in Scandinavia owing to milder winters and the latter spreads north #UKBirding #ClimateChange
