Tuesday 6th June 2006
	A good day for fresh discoveries with the highlight being a Pacific Golden Plover that spent much of the afternoon at Hickling Broad, Norfolk before departing to the southwest. In Scotland an adult Laughing Gull was located on North Uist, Western Isles with a Subalpine Warbler on Fair Isle, Shetland whilst in Northern Ireland an adult White-winged Black Tern at Belfast Lough, Co Down in the evening. Mobile rarities included a Black Stork seen flying over Margate late in the afternoon and Gazeley, Suffolk late in the evening. A Black Kite over Polzeath, Cornwall occurred amid a mass arrival of Red Kites into west Cornwall including at least eighteen in the vicinity of Land's End.
