Congratulations, Ben and Dave, on a great day's birding. Super list, Ben, but who would have thought just a few years ago that a comprehensive list of 100 birds seen in mid-September and including Spoonbill (5), Arctic Skua, Great Skua and 4 spp of Sandpiper,wouldn't include Song Thrush. It shows you how scarce that species has become...... and, inevitably, Spotted Flycatcher is missing (even at Gib Point). :(

Many thanks Freddy,

We were certainly shocked that we didn't get Song Thrush in 16 hours birding.

Best regards,

Ben
