The highlight of the day was the discovery of Kent's first Blackpoll
Warbler in Tunbridge Wells. Found mid afternoon, it showed on and off for an
hour, and becomes the sixth American passerine species seen in the county.
Other new discoveries included single Hume's Yellow-browed Warblers in Suffolk and Shetland, Long-billed Dowitcher in Essex, Desert Wheatear in County Dublin, single Little Buntings in Sussex and Dorset and another Dusky Warbler in the Isles of Scilly. The Sharp-tailed Sandpiper in Somerset relocated to Chew Valley Lake, with other lingering rarity highlights including Greater Yellowlegs and Eastern Black Redstart in Northumberland, Veery in Highland, Bufflehead in Cornwall, Wilson's Snipe in the Isles of Scilly, Northern Harrier in County Wexford, Pallid Harrier in County Cork, Forster's Tern in County Galway, Olive-backed Pipit and three Hume's Yellow-browed Warblers in Shetland and Desert Wheatear in Devon. |
