We managed very few other migrants with single Willow Warbler and Lesser Whitethroat, and a couple of Common Whitethroats. However, the always stunning scenery made also helped to make it a very nice day.

Holy Island
With a bit of east in the wind and some misty weather overnight we decided to spend yesterday on Holy Island. While the hoped for rarity didn't materialise, it was nice to see a female Red-backed Shrike on the fences near the Straight Lonnen. It largely remained distant along the far end of the fences but did come a bit closer for a few minutes, although we were always looking towards the sun.
