Remembering September 11th 2001.

The events of this day in 2001, will remain in the memory for a long time..... it was the day I managed to photograph the Pallid Harrier at Brow Marsh, as this was the first twitchable Pallid for ages, there was quite a bit of interest from 'down south' with a least 2 charter planes coming in to Sumburgh. I seem to remember standing ankle deep, out in the marsh for about 2 hours, before the bird came in to roost - got these shots just before it went dark. Also on this day in 2001, there was a Citrine Wagtail, also near Brow Marsh, wandering around on a small pool near a chicken pen.
Would it be wrong to refer to this day as 'A Blast from the Past' or ' A Towering Success' ? Hmmm......
