First Day on the Farnes


Our first full day on the Farnes, and the weather has been wonderful and the first migrants of the year are around. Aside from the seabirds present, there has been a good movement of gannets, a blackbird, a rook and two snow buntings showing very well, as well as a peregrine hunting over the wideopens.
