The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Terek Sandpiper in Cleveland, at Back Saltholme Pool. Elsewhere, a
Lesser Grey Shrike arrived on Bressay, Shetland Isles and Bee-eaters were reported briefly in Aberdeenshire and County Monaghan. Although the African Royal Tern did not linger overnight in Gwynedd, the territorial Little Bittern remained in Somerset as did the Black Duck in Cornwall, Red-footed Falcon in South Yorkshire and Great White Egret in Lancashire. Scarcities included a Woodchat Shrike in Glamorgan, Purple Heron in Suffolk, migrant Red-necked Phalarope on the Orkney Isles, single Red-backed Shrikes in both Fife and Forth and Marsh Warblers in County Durham, Norfolk, Orkney Isles and the Shetland Isles. |
