July sightings

July is generally a quiet month, but as proved quite good at least insofar as I've seen a noteworthy bird almost evertime I've been out. It started with a Storm Petrel fluttering past Lizard Point on the 7th, with a Balearic Shearwater past there on the 12th offering nice comparisons with the Manxie it was with. There also seems to be quite a few Med Gulls around, with two 1st winters at Swanpool on the 9th and a near-adult on the Penryn River on the 18th and loads reported elsewhere in Cornwall. Apparently a very good breeding season on the continent. Wader numbers picking-up too, with a Green Sandpiper on Ruan Pool on the 17th and a Greenshank on the Penryn River on the 15th and 18th. Curlew and Redshank increasing in numbers there, with about 20 of each, but no other wader species bar a Common Sand

  1. I’ll fake Panerai be wearing my trusty Breitling Exospace B55 Yachting, while also trying to get in as many 2020 novelties to review as I fake Franck Muller possibly can!
    What David’s playing: I started building my fake Tag Heuer LEGO Millennium Falcon Ultimate Collector’s Edition reference 75192 — the watch industry wants its naming fake Rolex scheme back, LEGO! — in December. I’m about one-third of the way to putting all its 7,541 parts together. When replica Rolex not doing that, you’ll find me escaping from Tarkov in a squad with a childhood friend of mine, connected fake rolex uk over Skype.
