| Alpine Swifts stole the headlines once again with seven birds today taking the potential total to as many as nineteen individuals in five days, although duplication is becoming increasingly likely. Other than two together briefly over Alnmouth, Northumberland all records today were of singles in East Anglia: in Essex at The Naze, in Suffolk at both Lakenheath and Lowestoft, and in Norfolk where individuals remained between Holkham and Hunstanton, and between Overstrand and West Runton into the evening. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present comprised the Bufflehead in Dorset, the King Eider in Moray, Glossy Ibis in County Wexford, Lesser Scaup in Clyde, Little Bunting in Highland and Richardson's Canada Goose in Argyll. Scarcities included seven Waxwings (Clyde), four each of Ring-billed Gull, Great Grey Shrike and Green-winged Teal, two each of Hoopoe (Dorset), Surf Scoter (Orkney Isles), Shorelark (Lothian), Great White Egret and Glaucous Gull and single Purple Heron (Pembrokeshire), Yellow-browed Warbler (Oxfordshire), American Wigeon (Dumfries and Galloway), Rough-legged Buzzard (Norfolk) and Black Brant (East Yorkshire). |
