A late start to the day. Not because of my oversleeping, but because of the weather: Chucking it down. Got out mid-morning and just birded around the village. Then, after dropping the family in St. Ives, I birded Pendeen (including a sea-watch), and then Kenidjack. Nothing. All day! Lots of Blackbirds and Goldcrests promising something more exotic, but no. Scenery beautiful though, and had a good time trying.
