| The highlight of the day was the discovery of four Penduline Tits together at Minsmere, Suffolk – making this fourth spring in a row that the species has been reported from this reserve. Another regular March occurrence is
White-billed Diver off the coast of northwest Scotland, such as one today at Melvaig, Highland. Elsewhere, lingering rarities comprised the Pacific Diver still off County Clare, the Bufflehead in Dorset, Forster's Tern in County Galway, single Lesser Scaups in both Clyde and Cornwall, single Little Buntings in both Cornwall and Highland, Richardson's Canada Goose in Argyll and Hooded Merganser in Cleveland. Scarcities included 35 Waxwings across seven counties, seven Iceland Gulls, six Ring-billed Gulls, five Ring-necked Ducks, four Great Grey Shrikes, three Rough-legged Buzzards and two each of Surf Scoter, American Wigeon, Cattle Egret (Cornwall), Lapland Bunting (Lincolnshire) and Glaucous Gull and single Great White Egret (Nottinghamshire), Little Auk (Cumbria) and Caspian Gull (Essex). |
