A male Siberian Stonechat at Bevercotes, Nottinghamshire, this
afternoon is an excellent record. Inland birds are rare enough, but one inland
in mid December is unprecedented. A white morph Gyr is also noteworthy,
although it didn't linger as it flew over farmland near Port Eynon, Glamorgan.
Long staying rarities included the Brown Shrike in Surrey, Baird's Sandpiper in Lothian, three Penduline Tits in Kent, three Glossy Ibises in Somerset with another in Worcestershire, Long-billed Dowitcher in Cumbria, King Eider in Moray, Lesser Scaup in Glamorgan, single Spotted Sandpipers in Devon, Hampshire, Essex and Forth and Red-breasted Goose in Devon. |
