RED-FLANKED BLUETAIL, Hilbre

Was found mid morning and it wasn't until 15:15 that the tide would allow access unless you're into swimming a mile and a half.  Thankfully the bird was still present and after being recaptured was released and showed again as it fed at the base of the cliffs on the north and east beaches.  Great record for the North West. More on 'Wirral Birders' on right.

Dear Mr Bluetail, why weren't you on the Orme this morning?
