| The highlight of the day was an unseasonal
Coues's Arctic Redpoll in the Shetland Isles on Unst, it's arrival perhaps
related to the appearance of Waxwings on Fair Isle and in the Orkney
Isles (4). Elsewhere, single Black Kites were seen briefly in Devon over
Exminster Marshes and Suffolk over Redgrave Fen. Lingering rarities comprised the River Warbler on the Orkney Isles, Forster's Tern in County Wexford, Glossy Ibis in Merseyside, three Black-winged Stilts in Cheshire and Great White Egret in Kent. Despite much searching, the Citril Finch was reported as present on Fair Isle, Shetland Isles by only one observer. Scarcities included a Rose-coloured Starling in Lancashire, Night Heron in Suffolk, Pectoral Sandpiper in Kent and on the Shetland Isles both Icterine Warbler and Red-backed Shrike. |
