A Wilson's Phalarope at Slimbridge WWT, Gloucestershire was a rather
surprising find, being just the third November record ever, with the only other
winter record being the Cleveland individual on 9th January 2005. A Baird's
Sandpiper in Lothian was slightly less unexpected, as were new Great
White Egrets in Devon and Suffolk.
Long staying rarities still present today included the Brown Shrike in Surrey, Fan-tailed Warbler in Kent, Azorean Yellow-legged Gull in Oxfordshire, Dusky Warbler in Suffolk, Blue-winged Teal in County Dublin and Lesser Yellowlegs in Lothian. A Pallas's Warbler was on Harris, Western Isles and a Red-breasted Flycatcher was at Seaford Head, Sussex. Yesterday, a probable Taiga Flycatcher was seen near St Just, Cornwall, but there was no sign of it today, despite extensive searching. |
