| A quieter day than yesterday with new rarities including an Arctic Warbler on Coll, Argyll and an American Golden Plover on South Uist, Western Isles whilst the
Bonelli's warbler at St Abb's Head, Borders was heard to call and proved itself to be a
Western. The Pallid Harrier remained in Norfolk as did the Eastern Olivaceous Warbler in Co Cork, Turkestan Shrike on Western Isles, Long-billed Dowitcher in Worcestershire, Citrine Wagtail in Co Kerry, Semipalmated Sandpipers in both Co Kerry and Co Wexford and Black-winged Stilt in Carmarthenshire. During the afternoon the Marbled Duck at Stanpit Marsh, Dorset allowed a very close approach; apparently the bird present in East Sussex yesterday had been equally confiding. Birders on the Scilly Isles continues to enjoy a trickle of rarities and scarcities amongst good numbers of commoner migrants with a Subalpine Warbler on St Agnes and a Bonell's warbler species on St Mary's being the highlights and Rose-coloured Starling, Hoopoe, Icterine Warbler, Richard's Pipit, Pectoral Sandpiper, Red-backed Shrike, two Wrynecks, Yellow-browed Warbler and Lapland Bunting as supporting cast. Meanwhile in Ireland, following the Azorean Yellow-legged Gull present yesterday in Co Kerry further candidates were located today in both Co Down and Co Dublin. |
