| The star bird today must be the juvenile Gyr on the Isles of Scilly,
watched for almost an hour at very close range, feeding on a domestic duck on a
lawn. In County Galway, the adult Forster's Tern reappeared at Claddagh
Beach, Galway, after an absence of almost a month. Also in Ireland, the juvenile
Ivory Gull continued to show well at Baltimore, County Cork.
In Norfolk, the Black-bellied Dipper put on its best show yet, remaining at Hunworth all day. The Siberian Thrush nearby at Glandford was not located, so the Dipper provided a welcome distraction. Other lingering rarities included Lesser Scaup in Nottinghamshire, Red-breasted Goose in Sussex and several Cattle Egrets and Great White Egrets. |
