This is a dangerous game.I predict:
An influx of drift migrants (Wrynecks, Ortolans etc) and perhaps an eastern vagrant(?) on Scilly by Thursday. Maybe Cornwall and south/southeast Ireland with some drift migrants.
The rest of the country- no major concentrations.
We will see.
Those northerlies toward the end of the week will see some juvenile Long-tailed Skuas in the North Sea and the East Coast will be peppered with Red-backed Shrike, Barred Warbler & Firecrest. Perhaps more Greenish as well.
ReplyDeleteGiven the alarming angle of the UK, I predict any decent bird will slide down to the very bottom of either Ireland or, more likely, Cornwall.
ReplyDeleteWe will all see.
ReplyDeleteCould run on a book on this stuff.
