| Overnight, news was released of a potential Slaty-backed Gull at
Rainham Marshes RSPB, London, where it was present very briefly on Thursday. It
was relocated mid morning today, and was present on and off throughout the day.
Photos of the spread wing were finally posted on the internet this evening, when
the identification could be confirmed of this much anticipated first for
Britain.
In Cornwall, news of a possible juvenile Northern Harrier was released from Bartinney Downs, after apparently being present since October 2010. The confirmed Northern Harrier remained in the Thornham area of Norfolk, whilst in the same county the Lesser White-fronted Goose was seen again in the Yare Valley, this time at Buckenham Marshes RSPB. Other lingering rarities seen today included the Red-breasted Goose at Cleveleys, Lancashire, two Coues's Arctic Redpolls at Rainton, County Durham, Ferruginous Duck in County Wexford, single Glossy Ibises in Berkshire and Kent and single Lesser Scaups in Cornwall and Gloucestershire. |
