| A new Lesser Scaup was found in Dumfries and Galloway at Milton Loch.
This made a total of three reported today, the others being at Cosmeston in
Glamorgan and at Marshside Marsh in Merseyside. On Shetland another King
Eider (a second year drake) joined the adult drake off Unst this afternoon.
In Cleveland, an Arctic Redpoll was with three Mealy Redpolls at Scaling
Dam Reservoir, and a Northern Long-tailed Tit was reported near Sizewell
in Suffolk.
The Stejneger's Scoter remained at Rossbeigh in County Kerry and the Rufous Turtle Dove was still in gardens in Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire. Other long-staying rarities included the Blue-winged Teal in Carmarthenshire, two Bonaparte's Gulls: one in Glamorgan and one in Anglesey, the American Coot in County Mayo and the Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset. A Cattle Egret put in a brief appearance at Stoke Ferry in Norfolk and the Hoopoe was still at Axmouth in Devon. Despite the arrival of a number of early spring migrants, there was still a smattering of Great Grey Shrikes and Waxwings around the country. |
