Blyth's Reed Warbler and White-billed Diver on the Orkney
Isles, on North Ronaldsay and on Mainland in Evie respectively, a Great Reed Warbler on the Shetland Isles at Vidlin, and a brief
Red-rumped Swallow at Ogston Reservoir, Derbyshire. Other lingering rarities comprised both Squacco Heron and Eastern Subalpine Warbler on the Shetland Isles, and Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, whilst scarcities included Purple Heron (Suffolk), White-tailed Eagle (Lincolnshire), Surf Scoter (Lothian), Golden Oriole (Hampshire), Great White Egret (Angus), Pectoral Sandpiper (Cheshire) and Ring-billed Gull (County Mayo). Significant late news concerns a report of a Scops Owl on Bryher, Isles of Scilly on 2nd June. |
