| Logan, Dad & I |
It was great fun to have my friend Logan from Mid Yell, Shetland on Fair Isle for the long weekend. Logan had six "lifers" his first day! 11 for the weekend! (Lifer - bird species you have never seen before in your whole life.) I didn't have any Lifers, but I'm happy that Logan is adding to his Life List. Dad is not a young Birder!
