I'm heading off on the annual pilgrimage to Corvo today. It's the twenty year anniversary since I had the great fortune of discovering the birding potential of this mythical island in 2005. Discovery story HERE and HERE,
An Empidonax flycatcher was found this week, an Alder/Willow, so I'm hoping that hangs around until tomorrow and it looks like there are some promising westerly winds over the next week so fingers crossed.
I put the moth trap out last night, a very wet and stormy night- Feathered Ranunculus was a new for garden and there was a nice selection of migrants too.
Right... I've got a plane to catch.
Feathered Ranunculus- looking forward to resuming the search for a rare migrant moth in the garden when I get back next weekend
