Nicer weather than forecast, so we completed the Twite survey around Norwick that included a colour-ringed individual that has been seen by others over the last fortnight and a singing Goldcrest.
Singing male Goldcrest at Norwick
the earliest date in the year that I've seen the species on Unst.
Colour-ringed Twite at Norwick
The colour-combination appeared to be an orange ring above a pink ring on the left leg and a yellow/orange ring above a metal ring on its right leg. It was first seen by Frank Josephs on the 27th February.
