| Red-footed Falcons were seen in Somerset, Bedfordshire, South
Yorkshire, Essex and Suffolk, which were all lingering birds. A new Glossy
Ibis was found in Somerset, at Shapwick Heath NNR, although it remained
mobile throughout the afternoon.
Deceased rarities included a Little Bittern found recently near Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, and the long staying adult Ross's Gull was also found dead today. The Whiskered Tern continued its stay at Inner Marsh Farm RSPB, Cheshire, as did the Bee-eater on Scilly, American Golden Plover in Devon, Subalpine Warbler on Fair Isle, King Eider in Aberdeenshire and the pair of Black-winged Stints in Cheshire. A small influx of Temminck's Stints occurred with 26 birds seen, including flocks of four and five in London and Kent respectively. |
