Lingering rarities confirmed as still present today comprised the Black-throated Thrush in North Yorkshire, Black Duck on the Isles of Scilly,
Forster's Tern in County Galway, three Glossy Ibises together in Somerset and the Little Bunting in Highland. Scarcities included four each of both Great White Egret and Shorelark, three each of Cattle Egret, Great Grey Shrike, Glaucous Gull and Caspian Gull, two each of Ring-necked Duck, Green-winged Teal and Iceland Gull and single Greater Snow Goose (Norfolk), Surf Scoter (Devon), Richard's Pipit (Cornwall), Lapland Bunting (Nottinghamshire), Grey Phalarope (Lincolnshire), Balearic Shearwater (Dorset), Black Brant (Norfolk) and Waxwing (County Down). Significant late news was received of a Black-throated Thrush present in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire on 12th January, making at total of five Black-throated Thrushes discovered in the five day period 8th-12th January (Glamorgan, Somerset, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and Buckinghamshire) - doubtless a direct result of the harsh weather conditions at that time. |
