I’m guessing this is the same bird that was near Mullion Cove last week?

Reminds me of Jasper Fforde’s “Thursday Next” books…

We did well yesterday, even though it wasn’t officially an Osprey Cruise. Thanks very much.

Amazing! Interesting to see the M/F size contrast.

Nice to see you both this morning.

…And why they got the credit from you.

I wonder which one of them were thinking it was a juvenile Dunlin after I suggested it could be a Temminck’s Stint.

You were up early! For mating, see the photo that I just posted. Keeping our fingers crossed...

Any photo of the Forster’s Tern from this morning? Presumably it’s in summer plumage now, and v similar to the Common Terns currently at Brownsea.
