| In Suffolk an adult White-winged Black Tern found at Minsmere RSPB
during the morning was the same individual as that present yesterday evening on Filey Brigg, North Yorkshire - an overnight movement of around 160 miles. A brief Pallid Swift was over St. Mary's (Scilly)
during the evening, (relatively) hot on the heels of a bird on Bryher two weeks
ago. In Norfolk a Cattle Egret was located at Burnham Norton but its'
provenance is anyone's guess as two birds were present at nearby Burnham Overy Staithe
for much of last autumn.
In Northumberland a subadult Night Heron was reported from Cresswell Pond briefly while a Grey Phalarope was a good find from a pelagic out of Lyme Bay (Dorset) during the morning. Otherwise it was still fairly slow, particularly in regards to wader passage, although a few more Wood Sandpipers and Spotted Redshanks in the past couple of days are hopefully the forerunner of more numbers, as well as much wanted diversity. |
