| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Balearic Woodchat Shrike in Cornwall at Ruan Pool. Elsewhere, on the Western Isles six
White-billed Divers were located off the Isle of Lewis and in Essex an Alpine Swift flew over Braintree. Lingering rarities included the elusive Two-barred Crossbill still in Bedfordshire, the Bonaparte's Gull in Glamorgan and two Glossy Ibises in Somerset. Scarcities were represented by five Hoopoes, three each of Lapland Bunting and Glaucous Gull, two each of Surf Scoter, Great White Egret, Ring-billed Gull (County Cork), Great Grey Shrike, Green-winged Teal and Iceland Gull and single Woodchat Shrike (Cornwall), Serin (Kent), Ring-necked Duck (Orkney Isles), Snow Goose (Aberdeenshire) and Caspian Gull (Kent). Two White Storks together on Anglesey at Wylfa Head this evening were presumably the same pair reported yesterday in Somerset and last being noted 140 miles southeast of their current location; migrating north over Rogerstone. |
