‘First Landing’ – American Veery Thrush in Ireland

An American Veery Thrush lands on Cape Clear Island in West Cork. The first recorded visit of this species to Ireland. Most likely carried towards Europe by Storm Callum. Wombat Media were delighted to capture the footage.

With thanks to Steve Wing of the BirdWatch Ireland Cape Clear Island Bird Observatory and John Coveney and also to Cape Clear Island Ferry. (http://www.cailinoir.com)
