	Seabirds dominated the proceedings with highlights being the first Fea's Petrel of the summer passing Brandon Point, Co Kerry during the morning and eight Wilson's Petrels recorded from a pelagic south of St Mary's, Isles of Scilly in the evening. A White-rumped Sandpiper was new in on North Ronaldsay, Orkney as was a Pectoral Sandpiper at Titchwell, Norfolk. Late news for yesterday from Ireland included the reappearance of both the American Black Tern at Lady's Island Lake, Co Wexford and the Long-billed Dowitcher at Shannon Airport Lagoon, Co Clare.
