| In West Sussex the Paddyfield Warbler was seen again at Pagham
Harbour, although it remained elusive during the afternoon. A Spotted
Sandpiper was found at Christchurch Harbour in Dorset, and the overwintering
bird at Plymouth was also seen today. Glossy Ibises totalled 29 with the
impressive flock of 23 still at Carew in Pembrokeshire and others in Essex, Isle
of Wight, Lancashire and Cheshire. On the Scillies, the Northern Waterthrush
was confirmed to be still present on St.Mary's, along with the Blue-winged
Teal.
Other lingering rarities included the Spanish Sparrow and Dark-eyed Junco in Hampshire, Bufflehead in Cornwall (although it moved location in the afternoon), Lesser Scaups in Gloucestershire and Cornwall, Long-billed Dowitcher in Carmarthenshire, Ross's Gull in County Down, Desert Wheatear in Yorkshire and Coue's Arctic Redpoll at Titchwell in Norfolk. The female Parrot Crossbill was still at Black Down in West Sussex and once again there were large numbers of Iceland and Glaucous Gulls, especially in the Shetlands and Western Isles. |
