| The highlight of the day was the first Black Stork of the year, seen in flight near Llanelli, Carmarthenshire. Other brief encounters included a
Bee-eater in Suffolk, single Great White Egrets in both Dorset and Hampshire and
Black Kites in Cornwall, Devon and West Sussex. A Subalpine Warbler was found on Unst, Shetland Isles and in the evening a
White-winged Black Tern was discovered at Blanket Nook, County Donegal. Lingering rarities comprised the Black-winged Pratincole and Great Reed Warbler both still in Norfolk, Squacco Heron in Cambridgeshire, Black Duck in Cornwall, Great Reed Warbler on the Shetland Isles and the elusive Gull-billed Tern still in Devon. Scarce landbirds were represented by two each of migrant Golden Orioles, Icterine Warbler and Marsh Warblers and single Bluethroat (Argyll), Serin (Dorset), Hoopoe (Buckinghamshire) and Red-backed Shrike (Isles of Scilly). |
