The most significant new rarity found today was a male Black-headed
Bunting which was seen briefly in a garden in Exeter, Devon, but
unfortunately it was not seen after midday. At the other end of the country, a
female Subalpine Warbler was on the Isle of May in Fife, after having
first been found yesterday. On the Outer Hebrides, the Bonaparte's Gull
was again on South Uist, in Lancashire the long-staying Glossy Ibis was
still to be found near Freckleton, whilst in Gloucestershire the Marbled Duck
was again at Saul Warth. In Dorset two Serins were seen briefly at
Portland Bill.
A new Buff-breasted Sandpiper at Ballycotton in County Cork is presumably a herald of autumn wader passage, a fact born out in other parts of the country by a sprinkling of waders such as Green Sandpipers and Spotted Redshanks on local patches. |
