Hi
The flycatcher was feeding amongst the trees by the shoreline at the  
end of the track from the white coastguard building towards the point  
(looking across to Devils Island). It prefers the first tree (a  
willow) then flies into the stunted spruces. I presumed that Mike and  
co would have seen it yesterday therefore I did not report it earlier.  
I can post a description at some point if required. Hopefully it will  
be seen again.
Dennis
