| Bird of the day was a Pacific Swift that flew south over Spurn (East
Yorkshire) at 1342, before being relocated briefly at Gibraltar Point
NNR (Lincolnshire) at 1430. There have been just five previous records of
Pacific Swift in Britain, but this is the third for Spurn following records on
1st July 2005 and on 22nd and 26th June 2008.
Lingering rarities included the Black Scoter in Aberdeenshire, Western Bonelli's Warbler in Derbyshire, Lesser Grey Shrike in Pembrokeshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Red-rumped Swallow in Surrey and Marbled Duck in East Sussex. The best of the rest included two Night Herons in Kent, White-tailed Eagle in Lincolnshire, Great White Egret in East Yorkshire, White-winged Black Tern and Temminck's Stint on Orkney. |
