| Following the six Glossy Ibises seen yesterday in Co Kerry and three seen over Hayle, Cornwall this afternoon, this evening saw the exceptional arrival of 17
Glossy Ibises at Slimbridge, Gloucestershire. The last influx of this species was in September 2002, but the number currently present in the British Isles exceeds any recent records. Otherwise, the Barrow's Goldeneye remained in Forth, Spotted Sandpiper in Cornwall, Laughing Gull in Devon, Long-billed Dowitcher in Derry, King Eider in Moray, a White-billed Diver on Shetland Isles and an American Herring Gull was seen again at Polgigga, Cornwall. Migrants continued to arrive, particularly Ring Ouzels and Redstarts, with a Spotted Crake at Attenborough in Nottinghamshire and several scattered Dotterel being notable. Pomarine Skuas moved east along the English Channel between West Sussex and Kent. |
