| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Franklin's Gull this evening at Chasewater, Staffordshire - only the second record for the county. In Devon an Alpine Swift flew over Berry Head, whilst elsewhere lingering rarities comprised the White-tailed Plover still in Kent, Terek Sandpiper in County Kerry, Little Bittern in Somerset, King Eider in North Yorkshire, Laughing Gull in County Antrim and Glossy Ibis in County Wexford. The territorial River Warbler remained in an area with no general access at Thorpe-next-Haddiscoe, Norfolk (with another viewing session planned for Saturday 17th July between 5am and 8am only). Scarcities included both Buff-breasted and Pectoral Sandpipers in Norfolk, Purple Heron in Kent, Common Rosefinch in Fife, at least 67 Balearic Shearwaters along the coast between Cornwall and Kent, and a Long-tailed Skua off Devon. |
