Yeh !! Me photographing another tern and getting the ID right this time.

I'll be ambitious and go for an American Robin at Rhosilli,silly I know but a man can dream !

Glossy Ibis is a good bet but as that's gone I'll go for Upland Sand having seen the forecast for this week....

Agree Glossy Ibis an odds on favourite but if its to be a yank how about Swainson's Thrush to beat the bookies.

Clive Ellis said...

Steve Hinton said...

Glossy Ibis would be a good candidate, i`ll go for Red breasted Flycatcher atNash.

RBF,long overdue,when was the last one?

Steve Hinton said...

Last Wednesday, took a while for news to get out!!

Slaphead said...

bloody gripvine,was it the one with the RF bluetail?

DRWG said...

Last in East Glam: Flat Holm 26/10/1988, mainland KNNR 3/11/1984. In the west, it's even earlier Whiteford NNR in 1983.
I should imagine RB Fly would be a tick for nearly everyone.
I missed the KNNR bird because I didn't know about it till it had gone - you see it does happen!!
