A trip back to the UK and I swung by a raptor watch-point and saw regular farmland species.
Friday 3rd, Burnham Market, Norfolk, UK.
Once back in the US I arranged a trip to Plymouth Airport for myself after speaking with the airport manager. I had read about specialist grassland species and hoped to see a few. I was rather later after the official BBC walk in May but figured these were breeding species and I might still have a chance to see some of them. I ended seeing only one of my target species, life-tick, VESPER SPARROW. However I had an enjoyable trip and I resolved to come again with the official trip the next year in the hope of picking up the ones I missed out on.
Monday 13th, Plymouth Airport, MA, USA.
