| Highlight of the day is clearly the adult Stilt Sandpiper in Dorset,
present for its second day at Lodmoor RSPB, although this second for the county
proved elusive and distant. In London, a Red-footed Falcon was reported
over Walthamstow.
In Derbyshire, the Western Bonelli's Warbler reappeared at Arnfield Reservoir, as did the Marsh Sandpiper at Blacktoft Sands RSPB, Yorkshire. Other rarities confirmed as still present included the Savi's Warbler in Norfolk, White-rumped Sandpiper in Cleveland and Ferruginous Duck in Cambridgeshire. The other very notable species was Storm Petrel, with at least one county day record broken (County Durham). The north-east coast had a bumper haul, with county totals of 183 in Fife, 62 in Lothian, 132 in Northumberland, 75 in County Durham, five in Yorkshire and just one off Norfolk. Good numbers of Sooty Shearwaters were also noted, and a Cory's Shearwater was also seen in Norfolk. |
