| The highlight of the day was a Ross's Gull that flew north past Seaton Sluice, Northumberland early in the morning. Elsewhere, a
Bonaparte's Gull discovered at Thurso, Highland may be a returning bird and a
White-billed Diver in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire was - like single Great White Egrets in Norfolk and the Isles of Scilly - only seen briefly. Lingering rarities included, in England, Franklin's Gull, Bonaparte's Gull, Lesser Scaup and Great White Egret all in Somerset, Great Reed Warbler on the Isles of Scilly, two Penduline Tits in Suffolk, King Eider in Devon, Lesser Scaup in Leicestershire, single Hume's Yellow-browed Warblers in both Cleveland and Cornwall and single Ross's Geese in both Lancashire and Norfolk. In Wales the Black Duck remained in Pembrokeshire as did the Spotted Sandpiper in Glamorgan. In Scotland, the Spotted Sandpiper showed again in Forth whilst single Lesser Scaups remained there and in Dumfries and Galloway. Cattle Egret reports comprised six in Cornwall, five in Somerset, four in Devon and one in Ceredigion. |
