| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Spotted Sandpiper at Rutland Water, Leicestershire. Elsewhere, in County Cork a
Wilson's Petrel was noted off Galley Head, in Somerset a Ferruginous Duck was located at Blagdon Lake, and on the Isles of Scilly a
Bee-eater was on St Mary's. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present today comprised the Marsh Sandpiper in East Yorkshire, the territorial Western Bonelli's Warbler in Derbyshire, Black-headed Bunting on the Shetland Isles, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, and two Pacific Golden Plovers together in County Londonderry. Scarcities included Common Rosefinch (Cambridgeshire and Pembrokeshire), Serin (Dorset), Marsh Warbler (Northumberland), Golden Oriole (Isles of Scilly), American Wigeon (Lincolnshire and Western Isles), Pectoral Sandpiper (Essex), Cory's and Great Shearwater (both County Cork). |
