Quick post

Too much going on really. In soul charge which of course leaves me a bit ragged, Louise off in Moray for a few days.

Last weekend on North Ronaldsay, just before the huge fall, take a look at their blog for the full gen. However, not really complaining as it was a great two days of just birding and saw a few nice things, Lapland Bunting, Pec Sand being the highlights.

 Pectoral Sandpiper

 Arctic Skua dark phase

Lesser Redpoll

It's blowing a hooley here today, managed to get the new potato bed fairly well sorted yesterday and about half of them planted. Couldn't do much today, first Wheatear and House Martin for the tetrad here today, first Sand Martin on Friday, Arctic Terns were on Monday. Tufted Duck made the "in the garden" list today with a brief flyover.
