| A quieter day than recently, although there was still plenty to see. A
Greenish Warbler was found at Pendeen, Cornwall this afternoon, a Citrine
Wagtail was on St.Mary's Scilly, a Semipalmated Sandpiper was at
Rogerstown, County Dublin, and, potentially bird of the day, a Wilson's
Phalarope was at Alkborough Flats, Lincolnshire.
Elsewhere, the Greater Sand Plover was again on the Ythan Estuary, Aberdeenshire, and the Thrush Nightingale was re-trapped at Holme, Norfolk. The flycatcher reported yesterday as a Collared Flycatcher at Fife Ness Muir, Fife was also re-trapped today, and confirmed as being a Pied Flycatcher. The Greenish Warbler remained at Newbiggin, Northumberland, as did Semipalmated Sandpiper at Ballycotton, County Cork, Black Duck in Ventry Harbour, County Kerry and White-billed Diver on South Ronaldsay, Orkney. Again, good numbers of scarce migrants were seen, including Woodchat Shrike, several Melodious Warblers, Icterine Warblers, Red-breasted Flycatchers and Ortolan Buntings. |
