| The pace of the autumn continues to slow down with the only new rarity today being a brief
Red-throated Pipit on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly. However, the archipelago continues to support an impressive
selection of rare and scarce birds with Blyth's Pipit, American
Robin, Serin, two Short-toed Larks, Rose-coloured
Starling, Red-backed Shrike, Wryneck and six Yellow-browed
Warblers. Elsewhere the Spotted Sandpiper continued to perform at Hayle Estuary, Cornwall as did the Red-breasted Geese in Lincolnshire, Great White Egret in South Yorkshire and White-rumped Sandpipers in Norfolk. Several long-staying rarities, such as Ferruginous Ducks in both Kent and Somerset, look set to remain for the duration and, when coupled with an arrival of Little Auks, added a real feel of winter to the day. |
