| The highlight of the day was the continued presence of the Glaucous-winged Gull at Cowpen Bewley and Holme Fleet, Cleveland, where - although elusive - it was present for much of the day. New discoveries included two King Eiders together in County Sligo at Lissadell, a Falcated Duck in Northamptonshire at Earls Barton, a Ferruginous Duck in Nottinghamshire at Girton and a brief Great White Egret at Capel, Surrey. Lingering rarities included the Gyr on the Isles of Scilly, Snowy Owl in Cornwall, White-billed Diver in Highland, Red-breasted Goose in Hampshire, King Eider in Fife, single Lesser Scaups in both County Fermanagh and Glamorgan, Ross's Goose in Norfolk, Hooded Merganser in Dorset and Cackling Canada Goose in Dumfries and Galloway. Cattle Egret reports totalled 33 birds in nine counties comprising ten in County Cork, eight in both Cornwall and Devon, two in Dorset and singles in Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Pembrokeshire, Isle of Scilly and County Waterford. |
