| The highlight of the day was a male Little Crake that showed throughout the day at Exminster Marshes, Devon. Elsewhere, in Norfolk a
Red-rumped Swallow was tracked along the coast from Winterton to Blakeney Point and in Leicestershire news broke of a
Great White Egret at Sheepy Parva. Lingering rarities included the Dark-eyed Junco still in Kent, three Black-winged Stilts together in Cornwall, Black Kite and Great White Egret in Suffolk, American Herring Gull in County Galway, Lesser Scaup in Somerset, Glossy Ibis and Ross's Goose in Lancashire, Richardson's Canada Goose in Argyll and Falcated Duck in Devon. Notable scarcities recorded today were single Purple Herons in Cornwall, Somerset and Suffolk, single Serins in both Cornwall and Dorset, a Pallas's Warbler in Dorset, Night Heron on the Shetland Isles and a White-spotted Bluethroat in Lancashire. Cattle Egret reports comprised fifteen in Cornwall, five in Devon and one in Dorset. |
