| Two adult Pacific Divers were identified today. One was on the Carnsew
Basin on the Hayle Estuary, Cornwall, whilst another was on the Severn Estuary
in Gloucestershire. Unfortunately, both birds' identities were only confirmed
after they had departed, although the Gloucestershire bird was also present
yesterday (identified as a Black-throated Diver, which would have been the first
record for the county since 1979).
In County Galway the adult American Herring Gull returned to Nimmo's Pier, whilst a Great White Egret was found at Wormleighton Reservoir, Warwickshire late afternoon. Lingering rarities included the Brown Shrike for its 40th day, Red-rumped Swallow in Borders, three Penduline Tits, two Glossy Ibises, a Cattle Egret and a Great White Egret at Dungeness, Kent, King Eider and Great White Egret in Moray, (the latter being joined by a Rose-coloured Starling), Wilson's Phalarope and Lesser Yellowlegs in Lothian and Spotted Sandpiper in Essex. |
