The highlight of the day was a white morph Gyr discovered in Devon. First noted on Saunton Sands it was relocated at Horsey Island before it departed to the northwest. In Gloucestershire a
Black Kite flew over Severn Beach. Elsewhere, both the Pacific Diver and Pied-billed Grebe remained in County Clare, as did the Bufflehead in Dorset, Snowy Owl on the Western Isles, Bonaparte's Gull in Glamorgan, King Eider in Moray, Ferruginous Duck in Somerset, single Lesser Scaups in both Clyde and Cornwall and Little Buntings in both Cornwall and Highland. Two Hoopoes were seen in Dorset with late news for Wednesday concerning further singles in Cornwall, Devon and Pembrokeshire. Other scarcities included 20 Waxwings across four counties, four Glaucous Gulls, three each of Ring-necked Duck, Great White Egret and Great Grey Shrike, two each of American Wigeon and Cattle Egret (Cornwall) and single Surf Scoter (Orkney Isles), Rough-legged Buzzard (Norfolk) and Green-winged Teal (County Clare). |
