| The adult Sharp-tailed Sandpiper in East Yorkshire began the day at
Patrington Haven before relocating to Kilnsea and Spurn, where it showed on the
Humber until early evening.
In Devon a juvenile Semipalmated Sandpiper at Dawlish Warren NNR may be the first of many given the weather forecast for remainder of this week. On Shetland a Paddyfield Warbler was discovered on Unst and in Co Dublin a flock of ten Glossy Ibises made landfall on the Rogerstown Estuary. Lingering rarities included Whiskered Tern in Cleveland, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Lincolnshire, Ferruginous Duck in Somerset and Glossy Ibis in Co Wexford. A Wilson's Petrel was logged from an Isles of Scilly pelagic and elsewhere scarcities came in the form of two Icterine Warblers, two Spotted Crakes, two Red-backed Shrikes, Barred Warbler, Marsh Warbler, Great White Egret, Cattle Egret, Purple Heron and Temminck's Stint. |
