| The first British Fea's Petrel of the year was seen in Cornwall today,
when it flew west past Gwennap Head, Porthgwarra at 2pm. Other headlands failed
to produce large numbers, but Great Shearwaters, Grey Phalaropes, Sabine's
Gulls and Balearic Shearwaters were all seen.
Two Marsh Sandpipers remained, in Essex at Heybridge GPs, and in Norfolk on Rush Hill Scrape. Lingering scarcities in Norfolk included the Wryneck at Kelling Heath and Tawny Pipit on Blakeney Point, with a Red-backed Shrike nearby in Suffolk, at Landguard NR, and a Kentish Plover briefly at Minsmere RSPB. Further rarities comprised the Ferruginous Duck at Chew Valley Lake, Somerset, Great White Egret at Blashford Lakes HWT, Hampshire and a Cattle Egret on Brownsea Island NT, Dorset. |
