| The first message of today was a Mega, a Sociable Plover in Kent.
Despite there being a few twitchable birds recently, this species remains much
sought after among birders, due to its rarity in a global perspective.
Unfortunately, this one did not hang around, and wasn't seen again after the
initial sighting. A Lesser Yellowlegs was found in Suffolk, at Southwold, on Town Marsh. The bird remained present all afternoon, until the news was released when it promptly flew off! In the Western Isles, a drake Lesser Scaup was on Benbecula, with the Warwickshire bird remaining at Draycote Water. Up to 22 Cattle Egrets remain in the southwest, although some seem to be slowly moving northeastwards. The Desert Wheatear was seen again in North Yorkshire, with other lingering rarities including two King Eiders in Aberdeenshire, Red-breasted Goose in Sussex, Great White Egret in Hampshire and a Wilson's Snipe on Scilly. The Pallas's Warbler was reported again in Warrenhouse Wood, Suffolk briefly, early morning. |
