Great to see the pallidirostris field ID confirmed by the poop/DNA sample I collected and sent to @docmartin2mc - freshly deposited when I took the photo and collected later! @birdinglothian
Some Festive DNA... The Steppe Grey Shrike from Dunbar, Sep 24, did a confirmed pallidirostris poop. Eastern Stonechat from St Kilda, Sep 2024, also pooped, confirmed Siberian maurus. @BirdGuides @RareBirdAlertUK

Recent DNA lab results include: Hume's Warbler, Spurn, Nov 24, confirmed as nominate humei. 'Eastern Stonechat', Icklesham, Nov 24, was Siberian maurus. and both Black-faced Buntings - Donna Nook and North Ron, were both just that.

DNA analysis of poop sample from 'Eastern' Stonechat from Holy Island, Oct 24, confirmed it was a Siberian Stonechat S. maurus, which tbh is what it looked like @BirdGuides @RareBirdAlertUK

Shrike DNA. North Ron Brown Shrike, Oct 2024 = reassuringly genetic Brown Bempton and Gillingham 'Izzy' Shrikes, Oct 2024: genetically in a clade containing both Daurian and Turkestan (and Red-backed) Shrikes so we can't ID. @DEBALMER @01000011S @RareBirdAlertUK @BirdGuides
