4th October 2024 Unst S5 Overcast

A very unproductive day was completely turned around when Chris very kindly let us know that a group of observers had seen a Locustella in the pine plantation below Valyie. Even with the considerable help from Rob, Roger & Scott armed with their thermals, it still took an eternity for us to obtain the required views of it to be certain that it was a Lanceolated Warbler.  

Skaw: Chiffchaff & 8 House Sparrows.

Haroldswick: 3 Chaffinch.

Norwick: Lanceolated Warbler & Blackcap.
