FW: Query from Down Under

["Julian B" <>]

Greetings Birders

 

While I accept that this is not truly Australian brding it does follow up on
a previous thread.

 

I made a  little faux pas when confusing  the Channel and Scilly Isles].
One correspondent [sorry forgotten name and inadvertently deleted email]
said that most of the Scilly Isles October migrants were in fact "ship
assisted."

 

This I questioned at the time and contacted Lee Even, of UK twitching fame.
Love him or find him a joke, few could gainsay that Lee is among the UK's
foremost birders; a man of vast birding experience and something of an
expert on Scilly Isles birds.

 

I attach his reply to my simple query below.

 

Cheers

 

Julian

Hi Julian

 

Nice to hear from you but sorry to hear about your plight

 

There has never, as far as I know, been any evidence of any known
ship-assisted vagrant on the Isles of Scilly

 

All the very best

 

Lee Evans
