| Once again, a fairly small area of Yorkshire produced some good birds, with
three Whiskered Terns joining the Collared Pratincole at
Swillington Ings, a Woodchat Shrike at Pugney's Country Park and a
Red-footed Falcon and Buff-breasted Sandpiper at Hatfield Moors, with
another Buff-breasted Sandpiper just 15 miles away in Lincolnshire.
Further south, a Squacco Heron was found at Wicken Fen NT,
Cambridgeshire, along with a Black Kite, and a Red-rumped Swallow
was at Paxton Pits NR.
Further south still, a Black Duck was in Cornwall, and seven Bee-eaters, a Black Kite and a Red-rumped Swallow were on the Isles of Scilly. Three more Bee-eaters were in each of Dorset and Kent, and the Black-winged Pratincole remained in the latter. Other lingering rarities included Savi's Warbler in Essex, Subalpine Warbler, Franklin's Gull and Laughing Gull on Shetland, Ferruginous Duck in Somerset and Forster's Tern in County Wexford. |
