| A Rustic Bunting was a surprise find at Saltfleetby, Lincolnshire. An
American Herring Gull was a more predictable discovery at Killybegs, Co Donegal with the continued presence of other
American Herring Gulls confirmed at Mousehole, Cornwall and Nimmo's Pier, Co Galway. Additional evidence of early spring movement by vagrants came from six Green-winged
Teals, two American Wigeons together in East Yorkshire and a Common Crane in Oxfordshire. In Cornwall the Gyr was reported again but, unlike the White-billed Diver, Spotted Sandpiper and Dusky Warbler in the same county, it managed to avoid the many visiting birders. Over-wintering rarities included the Glossy Ibis in Lancashire, Long-billed Dowitcher on Anglesey and Red-breasted Geese in Norfolk. The Laughing Gull showed again in Devon as did the White-tailed Eagle in Aberdeenshire and the Long-billed Dowitcher on the Essex/Suffolk border. |
