Despite there being a good number of Glossy Ibises around the country,
a group of five on the island of Eigg, Highland is an unusual record,
especially in January. Slightly further north, on the Western Isles, a
Bonaparte's Gull was on Loch Branahuie, Lewis late morning.
Other rarities noted included the Spanish Sparrow and Dark-eyed Junco in Hampshire, Western Sandpiper, Lesser White-fronted Goose, two Coues's Arctic Redpolls and Ferruginous Duck in Norfolk, Ross's Gull in County Down, Bonaparte's Gull in County Antrim, Forster's Tern in County Galway, Bufflehead in Cornwall, Blue-winged Teal on the Isles of Scilly, Lesser Scaup in Gloucestershire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Somerset, Desert Wheatear in Yorkshire, Red-breasted Goose in Devon. Glossy Ibises were recorded in Cornwall, Devon (2), Pembrokeshire (3), Gwent (2) Lancashire and County Mayo. Scarce gulls once again featured prominently, with the totals being nine Kumlien's, 37 Glaucous and 254 Iceland. |
