Another lovely bird to see at Eshaness, Shetland yesterday - Glossy Ibis. Once an extreme rarity here, the species is now pretty much annual in autumn and hails from expanding breeding populations in southern and south eastern Europe. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

The Lesser Yellowlegs, present for its second day on Barra, was again flaunting itself at Allasdale on a rapidly shrinking pool just a few metres from the road. What an absolute treat! #birdingscotland #RareBirdsUK

Sensational views of Shetland's seventh-ever Purple Heron at Boddam today. Great to see it catching a few eels in the burn and equally great to see folk of all ages and levels of interest coming for a look... #BirdingScotland #ukbirding #RareBirdsUK #birds

Lesser Yellowlegs new in at Allasdale today. With only single previous records for both Barra and Vatersay, this was a very good find by Mark Oksien. #birdingscotland #RareBirdsUK

Just found an absolutely stonking male Collared Flycatcher at Creachan, a species I've been dreaming of finding for years! This is the first for Barra and the third for the Outer Hebrides. #BirdingScotland #RareBirdsUK

This stunning juvenile male Pallid Harrier has now been with us here in the south Mainland of Shetland for the last three weeks. At one stage it was joined by a juvenile female for a couple of days. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

Lovely to have a Yellow-browed Warbler feeding among the trees in our Shetland garden on Wednesday afternoon. A common breeder in the Siberian taiga forest, 'Yellow-broweds' are regular migrants to our shores. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

Well that was unexpected. Broad-billed Sandpiper at QE2 (Walton) this afternoon. Think was taken by a Peregrine a few minutes later. #surreybirds #rarebirdsUK. The definition of inland reservoir patch gold. Almost like the Enhanced Games!!
