Corvo Day 2

 Looking for the Indigo Bunting
 Fog today made it impossible to bird anywhere apart from the village
 Pintail- a new arrival. There have been 40+ on Sao Miguel in recent days so obviously a influx occurring. 
 Juvenile Black-tailed Godwit- showing well again
 Turnstone
Atlantic Canaries

A fairly quiet day with efforts hampered by being woke up by a massive electric storm in the night (which blew out some of the village circuits and also blew up some of our charges) and dense fog blanketing most of the island during the day. The Indigo Bunting is still around the village but elusive, Pintail is a new bird, Blackwit still around, 3 White-rumped Sandpipers on the airfield and 10 Wheatears around here.
