| The highlight of the day was confirmation of a Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler
at Cot Valley, Cornwall; this bird had been present for four days and initially believed to be a Yellow-browed Warbler. In Somerset a
Great White Egret was discovered at Catcott Lows and in Cornwall a Pacific Diver was reported again at St Austell Bay. Elsewhere, two Wilson's Snipes were seen together on the Isles of Scilly with other lingering rarities including the Desert Wheatear in North Yorkshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Aberdeenshire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Angus, Spotted Sandpipers in both Forth and Glamorgan, Lesser Scaups in both County Down and Wiltshire and single Great White Egrets in Cambridgeshire, County Londonderry and the Western Isles. The thirty four Cattle Egrets seen today comprised singles in both Dumfries and Galloway and Gloucestershire with the remainder in Cornwall (fourteen near Helston, nine near St Ives, seven near Sancreed and singles at both Polgigga and St Buryan). |
