| The highlight of the day was the continued presence of both mega rarities in the Northern Isles: the
Citril Finch remained on the Shetland Isles on Fair Isle and the River Warbler
continued to sing in Evie on the Orkney Isles. Lingering rarities comprised the Forster's Tern in County Wexford, three Black-winged Stilts in Cheshire, Great White Egret in Gloucestershire, Red-footed Falcon in Kent and what is presumed to be an American Herring Gull in Somerset. Elsewhere, a Great White Egret arrived at Denge Marsh, Kent and there were brief encounters with a Black Kite at Wykeham Forest, North Yorkshire and a Bee-eater at Long Lawford, Warwickshire. Scarce migrants included two Red-backed Shrikes, a Rose-coloured Starling, a Common Rosefinch and Golden Oriole and the recent movement of Crossbills continued with 232 reported from eight English counties. |
