| A very early Whiskered Tern was seen in County Cork, at Kilcolman
Birdwatch Ireland Nature Reserve, with other spring rarities including a
Black Kite in Kent, over Capel Fleet and several Cattle Egrets and
Great White Egrets moving around the country.
Continuing winter rarities included the King Eider in Ayrshire, Bonaparte's Gull on the Western Isles, Lesser Scaups in Forth, Dumfries and Galloway and Somerset, Spotted Sandpipers in Forth and Glamorgan and the female Black Duck was still in Pembrokeshire, on Marloes Mere. Two Night Herons were found, with one, an adult, as far north as Fair Isle! Ospreys and Ring Ouzels continued their movement into inland Britain, and many other spring migrants are becoming more available, including a Grasshopper Warbler in East Sussex. |
