Saturday 1st December 2007  
  The female King Eider off Girdle Ness, Aberdeenshire, attracted a first winter male today, both birds showing well. The two Bonaparte's Gulls in Scotland also showed well today, as did the Lesser Yellowlegs at Montrose Basin, Angus.

A Great White Egret flew over Barrow GPs, Derbyshire mid afternoon. This bird has been seen on a number of occasions recently, and it is hoped that it will find somewhere to its liking locally. Other Great White Egrets included the long staying birds in Lancashire and Hampshire, and Cattle Egrets remained near Penzance, Cornwall, and at Upton Country Park, Dorset.

The White-tailed Eagle in Hampshire proved to be very mobile today, with many birders spending several hours searching the area before connecting. The two Desert Wheatears on the east coast were, however, far more obliging.
