Monday 15th June 2009  
  Another quiet day was shattered mid evening when news of the African Royal Tern was released. The bird was present in the Abersoch area of Gwynedd from 2.30pm and settled in the harbour until 6.30pm, when it flew north-east to Black Rock Sands, Porthmadog, where it roosted on the beach until dark.

In Somerset the Little Bittern remained at Walton Heath, while the Black Duck was still in Cornwall, Red-footed Falcon in South Yorkshire, Lesser Scaup on Shetland and a Bee-eater flew over Essington Quarry Pool, Staffordshire. Scarcities included a Red-backed Shrike and Marsh Warbler in Norfolk and a Surf Scoter on Shetland.
