On This Day in History - 17th October

The yanks were again out in force today with American Golden Plover at Davidstow Airfield in 1987, Lesser Yellowlegs at Stithians in 1969, Red-eyed Vireo at Trevail in 1987 and last but certainly not least, a NORTHERN PARULA at Penlee Point in 1985. Radde’s Warblers were at Porthgwarra in 1988 and Nanjizal in 1989.
