I was in Dungarvan, Waterford on Monday 9th November and made the effort to go walk out along the sandy spit called the Cunnigar where a few days earlier local birder Daniel Weldon had found an Isabelline Wheatear feeding in the sand dunes midway out. The day was not as still, calm or sunny as the previous few days, but nevertheless the bird was still present and along with a visiting friend Saul Herrera from Costa Rica, we both managed to grab a few snaps. This was a first Irish tick for me and delighted to have caught up with it as I had dipped on a few previous birds.
