| On the Shetlands, two new Subalpine Warblers were found on Mainland,
one at Sumburgh, and another at Scatness. Also on Shetland a Tawny Pipit
remained at Boddam on Mainland and two Icterine Warblers were on Fair
Isle. Other eastern birds brought in by strong easterlies included an
Icterine Warbler in Orkney and on the Yorkshire coast, three Icterine
Warblers, a Red-breasted Flycatcher and a Golden Oriole, along
with a new Red-footed Falcon at Howden and the lingering Broad-billed
Sandpiper on the Humber Estuary at Spurn.
Other Red-footed Falcons could still be found near Livingston in Lothian, near Ingleby in Derbyshire and on the New Forest in Hampshire. The Black Stork was seen again in Orkney, the Glossy Ibis remained at Marshside Marsh in Merseyside and single Cattle Egrets were reported from Kent, Dorset and Devon. A Black Kite was seen at Udimore in East Sussex and a Tawny Pipit remained at Rye Harbour where there was also belated news of a Bee-eater yesterday. A female Red-necked Phalarope was at Heacham in Norfolk and a number of Fulmars appeared inland to reward patch watchers. |
