The bird was showing well around the farm around midday to early afternoon at least, hopefully more news from Skomer staff later. Hopefully it stays at least another day and the weather is kind enough to let the boats run tomorrow (from 10am from Martin's Haven). The staff did try and arrange a special boat at 4pm today, but the wind had picked up and it was an eventful trip back to the mainland at 3.30pm to say the least!
Also the best views I have ever had of a Wood Sandpiper at Moory Mere, a smart Pied Flycatcher in South Stream Valley, and a notable passage of hirundines, especially Swallows, and my 1st Swift of the year. A cracking day!
