An Eastern Olivaceous Warbler was a rather unseasonal surprise on Fair
Isle today, although not unprecedented, with a previous June record on Fair Isle
and an early July record on Portland Bill in Dorset. In north Wales there were
one or two sightings of what was possibly the African Royal Tern at
Llandudno, although it did not give itself up to the crowds. In Yorkshire the
Spotted Sandpiper was present early morning at North Cave Wetlands but then
flew south and was not relocated. In Somerset the Little Bittern remained
at Walton Heath near Glastonbury.
In Suffolk a Woodchat Shrike was found at Orford during the afternoon and another popular bird was a Red-necked Phalarope which was found at Upton Warren in Worcestershire. The Marsh Warbler continued to sing at Amwell in Hertfordshire and both Marsh Warblers were still singing at Herrington Country Park in County Durham. Three Roseate Terns continued to show well at Minsmere RSPB in Suffolk and an early Great Shearwater flew past Carnsore Point in County Wexford. |
