Our last day on Scilly before the trip home. I managed to get great views of this Grey-cheeked Thrush.
An excellent end to Scillies 2023.
Just got back from Scillies. I must have been part of the last group of birders to see the Red-footed Booby. This was my best shot. So happy to see this bird.
Great time on Scillies this year. Whilst going see Red footed Booby we checked the Shearwaters for something rarer. However I managed this shot of Cory's Shearwater. Massive thanks to@Scillypelagics for dropping us back on St. Agnes.
Pipits can be difficult sometimes, so I was pleased to see this Olive-backed Pipit at Levenwick Shetland on 29th September
The highlight of my trip to Shetland this year was seeing two Arctic Redpolls. This Hornemann's Arctic Redpoll was photographed at Lunna in the pouring rain!

Male Osprey 022 has obviously been getting a bit distracted with new female Ospreys arriving through with him dropping in to see the new arrival at the Middlebere nest platform this yesterday @DorsetBirdClub @timmackrill @RSPBArne @Peter_Purbeck
Some great views of Shearwaters this weekend from the Pelagic trips from the Scilly Isles. Great, Balearic, and Sooty Shearwater.@Scillypelagics
