| The highlight of the day was a Sardinian Warbler at Hopton-on-Sea, Norfolk, albeit only seen briefly early in the morning. Brief encounters elsewhere included single
Black Storks migrating over Felixstowe, Suffolk and Gillingham, Kent, whilst a Bee-eater
was seen in Cornwall on The Lizard, and a Black Kite flew over Symonds Yat, Herefordshire. Lingering rarities comprised the Gull-billed Tern in Cornwall, Whiskered Tern in Argyll, King Eider in Aberdeenshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Argyll, Red-breasted Goose in Perth and Kinross, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, Lesser Scaup in Gloucestershire and Ferruginous Duck in Wiltshire. The best of rest were a Short-toed Lark in Dorset, Woodchat Shrike and Purple Heron on the Isles of Scilly, Purple Herons in Anglesey and Cornwall, American Wigeon in Devon, White-tailed Eagle in Norfolk, and Hoopoes in Cornwall, Derbyshire, Hampshire (2) and Pembrokeshire. |
