Not what I was expecting today - checking the newly arrived Barnacle Geese (some 2,000+) around East Tiree for rings, when I came across this new juvenile Buff-breasted Sandpiper at Ruaig #BirdingScotland #PWC2026 @birdguides.bsky.social

A day that began with a Desert Wheatear at Wells-next-the-Sea, concluded with this stunning Isabelline Wheatear at Winterton Dunes. In between, I managed a self-found Richard's Pipit, juv Rosy Starling, a trio of Shorelark and a couple of flighty Snow Bunting #ukbirding

The Black-faced Bunting, Isabelline Wheatears, Red-flanked Bluetail and Barred Warbler at Sammy’s are still present (though the bunting and Bluetail are elusive). The Bluethroat has flown towards Southfield Farm, and no sign of the Pallas’s Warbler at Sammy’s. #Spurnbirds @rarebirder.bsky.social
