@markgolley.bsky.socialQuiz nite!
Home from Devon & reminiscing about rares seen there in my youth. Four old, one less so.
One a mega.
One a "bird of the decade" for many who saw it.
One a dessert after main course the same day (2 for 1!)
One a bunked-off-school solid rare at the time.
What & where?!?

@anthrobirder.bsky.socialMy morning trudge round Girdle Ness wasn't a total waste of time, as I found this lovely Rustic Bunting near the Battery. My first record here.

If you're a gambler, the smart money is on the impending appearance of a Nutcracker on our shores. By way of pre-emptive celebs, here's the two outrageous individuals that were part of my youth ~ Westleton November 1985 & Cocknage Wood, October 1991. Epic rare!
