| The American Buff-bellied Pipit at Red Barn Strand, County Cork,
made a reappearance today, as did the Barrow's Goldeneye at Quoile
Pondage, County Down. The Glossy Ibis in Lincolnshire proved difficult,
as it was flushed several times, often landing out of view for several hours.
Nearby, the Cattle Egret was faithful to its favoured field near Louth
all day, with another 53 around the country.
There are now two adult drake Lesser Scaup at Loch Leven, Perth and Kinross, with other lingering rarities including the White-crowned Sparrow in Norfolk, two Hume's Yellow-browed Warblers in Cornwall, American Herring Gull in County Galway, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, three Ferruginous Ducks, including two in Derbyshire and one in Norfolk, although two of these are possibly of suspect origin and the Spotted Sandpiper in Glamorgan. The Pacific Diver was not present at Llys-y-Fran Reservoir in Pembrokeshire today. |
