Dear Sean and all,
Hope you go well over there, I think you should get a lot of interest in
your very entertaining book. I just hope that if you go on a twitch that it
doesn't get too big.
On one visit to the Scillies (back in the '80's, yes i'm getting on) a
Hermit Thrush appeared and within a few hours every birder on the islands
had converged on the one spot. The estimates went up to around 2000.( I
imagine this must have been surpassed many times since). The poor bird had
just been blown across the Atlantic (was clearly a little worn out), so
there was little chance of a decent view of it.
Maybe a fairly big twitch would be even better ? !
But seriously, You'll have a great time, and if you are out and about and
cross paths with a birder don't forget to ask .. "much about?" Or if you are
up north.. "owtabout ?"
Cheers,
Simon starr.
