For todays news see http://www.birdingazores.com/
Highlights on Corvo today include 2 Buff-bellied Pipit and 2 Dotterel.
The Ovenbird showed well this morning and a Pale-bellied Brent Goose (top) was flying around.
The latest Eurovision Rare Bird Contest results here, with Sweden maintaining a lead but France and Belgium neck and neck and closing fast: http://peteralfreybirdingnotebook.blogspot.com/2009/10/eurovision-rare-bird-contest-update.html
France claimed that the find of two Buff-bellied Pipit together qualified as two points rather than one point (for one record). Strangely enough the group consensus decided that it only qualified as one point.
