Guessing it is the bird that has frequented Hogganfield in previous winters?

Assuming the high eske drake is a different bird, that's a nice tally of 3 drakes in the area

Feels like they've had all the mega passerines in the past couple of years - must be our turn!

Think only the 4th mainland Britain east coast record?

Same with the geos and west cliffs of foula - the American passerines that must have arrived there!

Did you check the berries for black throated thrush?

A focus on juvenile light/pale morph Rough-legged Hawk (Buteo lagopus sanctijohannis) identification – Raptor Identification – The complete raptors guide

www.raptoridentification.com/a-focus-on-j... I have been glacially slow at pulling these thoughts together on the vagrancy/ID of these Nearctic Hare-footed Stunners. I hope it’s of use to some very lucky person one day somewhere in Europe. thanks for your time.

Did you park in Weel and walk south, Mark, or park in Wawne and walk north?

Definitely. Ditto Siskins. Noted more song thrushes though.

I think they still add birds every year to keep the population going

Don't qualify for Cat C5 in UK as not deemed self sustaining. Dutch birders and Swedish birders tick them.

If one is around, RSPB staff normally have pretty up to date information on where they've been seen that day

I saw the yellow warbler today on train from Birmingham. Can recommend!

Plenty of shoveler in evidence today, but didn't see any gadwall. When I visited frequently on lock down walks I'd see 2-3 pairs of gadwall reliably and clocked a single pochard once.
