| The highlight of the day was the widespread influx of Leach's Petrels with birds reported in twenty counties from Co Cork to Aberdeenshire, Co Fermanagh, Essex and North Yorkshire. The peak count was of 102 in Galway Bay, Co Galway with other highs of 93 at Porthcawl, Glamorgan, 47 off Heysham, Lancashire and 36 over the Severn Estuary at Sharpness, Gloucestershire. Otherwise, lingering rarities included the Spotted Sandpiper in Cornwall, Cattle Egret in Devon, Lesser Scaup in Co Dublin, White-rumped Sandpiper in Norfolk and Great White Egret in Hampshire. The first-winter male Falcated Duck remained at Bowling Green Marsh, Devon as did the Red-breasted Goose at Arne, Dorset. |
