| On the Western Isles, a Killdeer was found on Lewis, at Loch
Staipabhat late morning, and was present until mid evening when it flew south.
Other new rarities included a White-billed Diver off North Ronaldsay,
Orkney, with another remaining in Highland, a Great White Egret was at
Lodmoor RSPB, Dorset, briefly and a Cattle Egret was in Lancashire, also
briefly.
The Great Spotted Cuckoo was seen for a few minutes in Cornwall, but was very elusive for the rest of the day. Other lingering rarities included King Eider in Fife and Lesser Scaup in Nottinghamshire. The first Kentish Plover of the spring was seen in Essex, and there continued to be a good movement of Little Gulls through inland counties. |
