| Hot news today was the discovery of an adult Egyptian Vulture in Norfolk at Scoulton near Watton. Found grounded in a field early morning it soon took off and departed north-northeast but was not seen again by dusk. This represents the third acceptable British record and the first since 1868. Other new rarities consisted of a Lesser Yellowlegs near Kenchester, Herefordshire, two brief Red-rumped Swallows at Pett Levels, East Sussex, a Bonaparte's Gull at Tacumshin, Co Wexford, an American Herring Gull on Tresco, Isles of Scilly and fly-over Black Kites in both Dorset and Kent. The Iberian Chiffchaff remained in Norfolk as did the Black Kite on the Isles of Scilly, seven Glossy Ibises and Spotted Sandpiper in Cornwall and eight Glossy Ibises and a Marbled Duck together in Gloucestershire. On the Shetland Isles the Killdeer was seen again along with two White-billed Divers and a King Eider. |
