23 September 2023 - Bay-breasted Warbler, Ramsey Island, Wales

 Holy Moly! just twenty-four hours after the Magnolia Warbler, and today is another ultra-rare North American warbler - this time a first-year Bay-breasted Warbler on Ramsey Island.

The trip across to the Ramsey was easy enough - the challenging bit had been getting boat tickets out for Max and I. 59 calls through to the boat people and I finally managed to nail two of the last tickets.

 A return trip to the St Govan's area for the Canada Warbler proved fruitless for me - I had to give up as Max was waiting in the car. This wasn't a huge worry as I'd seen the Irish bird a few years ago...would have been nice though!
