The undoubted highlight of the day was the confirmation that the Black-browed Albatross has returned to the Gannetry on Sula Sgeir, Western Isles. The bird was seen well by more than fifty keen birders on the first of three RBA Albatross Twitches this week. Other discoveries today included a Spotted Sandpiper at Blackditch, Co Wicklow, a Great White Egret at Brow Marsh, Shetland Isles and a brief Black Kite near Coldstream, Borders. The Wilson's Phalarope remained in Cambridgeshire as did the Bonaparte's Gull in Oxfordshire, Iberian Chiffchaff in Norfolk, Eastern Subalpine Warbler on Orkney, Lesser Yellowlegs in Co Cork and three Glossy Ibises and the Marbled Duck in Gloucestershire. |
