| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Greater Yellowlegs in Hampshire. Present at Farlington Marshes mid afternoon and again this evening it was perhaps the individual seen yesterday 133 miles to the north northeast at Baston, Lincolnshire. On the Shetland Isles a Sardinian Warbler was discovered on Mainland (at Scousburgh) along with the long-staying Killdeer and a Yellow-browed Warbler. The Arctic Warbler and an Iceland Gull remained on Out Skerries and the Spotted Sandpiper showed again on Yell whilst on adjacent Unst, Melodious Warbler, Marsh Warbler, Common Rosefinch and Lapland Bunting were all seen. At least seventeen Greenland Redpolls were scattered around the archipelago. On the Isles of Scilly the American Buff-bellied Pipit continued to show well with the Barred Warbler on St Mary's, a Wryneck was seen on Bryher and the Pectoral Sandpiper remained on Tresco, where yesterday the Citrine Wagtail was still present. Lingering rarities elsewhere consisted of the Wilson's Phalarope in Worcestershire, Black Kite in Cornwall, Lesser Yellowlegs in Suffolk, American Golden Plover on the Orkney Isles and Glossy Ibis in Lancashire with single Great White Egrets in Derbyshire, Hampshire, South Yorkshire, Suffolk and County Derry. Other Irish rarities included the Snowy Owl still in County Mayo and the Baird's Sandpiper again in County Wexford. |
