| A male Rustic Bunting was new in on Fair Isle, Shetland today, as was
a Bluethroat. A Great Reed Warbler was trapped and ringed at
Malltraeth RSPB, Anglesey, but unfortunately was not seen after release. A drake
Blue-winged Teal in Cambridgeshire, the second in just under three weeks
and just the eighth for the county, was found at Fen Drayton Lakes RSPB mid
morning, where it remained until dusk.
Long staying rarities logged today included the Marmora's Warbler and Iberian Chiffchaff in Gwent (with another of the latter still in Yorkshire), Broad-billed Sandpiper in Cleveland and Great Reed Warbler in Derbyshire. Classic mid summer scarcities were represented by two Common Rosefinches, a Red-backed Shrike in Northumberland, a Marsh Warbler in South Yorkshire and a Golden Oriole in Cornwall, whilst the White-spotted Bluethroat remained in Norfolk. |
