The earliest ever Wilson's Petrel for the Isles of Scilly was seen
from a pelagic this evening, beating one from 2001 by five days. Nearby, in
Cornwall, a Bee-eater was seen briefly on The Lizard. In Norfolk, the
second Broad-billed Sandpiper of the year was found at Breydon Water,
whilst a Black Stork flew over Waxham early morning. Further north, an
adult Laughing Gull was seen at Garrabost, Western Isles.
The only lingering rarities seen today were the Black-headed Bunting at Mallaig, Highland, Savi's Warbler at Lodmoor, Dorset and Bonaparte's Gull on the Exe Estuary, Devon. Scarcity highlights included a Surf Scoter, a Kentish Plover, a Purple Heron, a Marsh Warbler, a White-spotted Bluethroat, two American Wigeon, two Common Rosefinches and two Red-necked Phalaropes. |
