| Bird of the day is likely to be the second ever spring record of Upland
Sandpiper, and a first for north-east Scotland. It was present this
afternoon just north of Loch of Strathbeg RSPB, Aberdeenshire, and showed well.
More classic spring rarities included another Subalpine Warbler, this time on Blakeney Point, Norfolk, Whiskered Terns in Somerset, Dorset and Glamorgan, Red-rumped Swallow in Flintshire and Bee-eaters in Kent and East Sussex. The American Golden Plover returned to Exminster Marshes RSPB this afternoon, and lingering winter rarities included the Ross's Gull in Lancashire, King Eider in Ayrshire, American Herring Gull in County Galway and Cattle Egrets in seven counties. |
