| A King Eider was an unexpected discovery in Lincolnshire this evening,
at the River Witham mouth near Boston, representing the first record for the
county. In Dorset, a Little Crake was seen at Radipole Lake, Dorset,
early evening, but not again by dusk. A Wilson's Petrel was a superb
record for the north-west, being seen off Seaforth, Merseyside, a few times
early afternoon. Ten Glossy Ibises remained in Carmarthenshire, with another
eight in County Wexford and seven in Essex.
An Alpine Swift was found in Hertfordshire this evening, and continued to show very well until mid evening. A Spotted Sandpiper was seen in County Wexford, and lingering rarities consisted of Citrine Wagtail and two Baird's Sandpipers in Cornwall, with others of the latter in Anglesey and County Kerry, American Golden Plovers in County Derry and on the Western Isles, Wilson's Phalarope in Devon, single Great White Egrets in Somerset, Kent and Leicestershire, Hooded Merganser in Cleveland and single Cattle Egrets in Gloucestershire and Hampshire. |
