Bitter sweet

Spent a pleasant day off isle over on Yell being fed and watered by Dougie and his better half ! Whilst away missed yet another Icterine Warbler this autumn, again at Skaw but thankfully not much else. The Pectoral Sandpiper was still in situ at Houll this evening and all is looking good for patch getting a good going over first thing. Whilst we are literally bathing in squally showers/rain, down at The Oval SE1 England were basking in sunshine and glory dismantling Australia to regain the Ashes. Quality.
