| A total of twenty new rarities were discovered today, which must prove that autumn
migration is still with us. The arrival of five new Hume's Yellow-browed
Warblers (Suffolk, Norfolk, Northumberland and two in Shetland) is a record
for one day, but we are still not quite halfway to the annual record, set in
2003 when 29 were seen. New Dusky Warblers were seen in Shetland (two),
Aberdeenshire, Suffolk and the Isles of Scilly, Desert Wheatears in Kent
and Pembrokeshire (with lingering birds in County Wicklow (two) and Norfolk),
Olive-backed Pipit in Shetland, Pallid Harriers in Cornwall and
County Cork, Glossy Ibis in Anglesey and Ross's Geese in Norfolk
and Northumberland (two). Late news for yesterday concerned a Lesser Scaup
in County Galway.
Other rarity highlights today included the Eastern Black Redstart in Kent, Greater Yellowlegs in Northumberland, Bufflehead in Cornwall, Red-breasted Geese in Essex and Devon, Glossy Ibises in Kent, Dorset and Devon, Spotted Sandpipers in Somerset and Devon, Long-billed Dowitchers in Dumfries and Galloway and Somerset, Lesser Yellowlegs in the Isles of Scilly and White-billed Diver in the Western Isles. |
