A male House Sparrow L37 seen in the garden this morning. The first time I have seen him since 8th October last year.

When here in the Outer Hebrides and looking at a bird, have you ever wondered how rare it is? The status of all species can vary enormously from island to island. How rare is Shoveler on Barra, has Stock Dove been seen on Harris, does Dotterel occur on Benbecula in the autumn, and how common is Blue Tit on North Uist? Well, fret no longer! The Status and Distribution of birds here on the Outer Hebrides has been completely updated and summarised for every species and each of the main islands and outliers.

Hi Bill,
L37 was ringed on 12th June 2016 as a juvenile and, as you say, last seen in Askernish in October (15th being my last date). True to form, this is another wandering juvenile that, like a handful of others in the past, have returned. Let's hope he stays to boost our numbers here.
Can't help but wonder where he's been all this time. perhaps someone has seen him?
