| A drake Black Scoter at Portmahomack, Highland was undoubtedly the
bird of the day as the British total of this species is still in the low teens,
although it may have lost its appeal recently after three or four recent
individuals have been well twitched by the masses. Other new discoveries today
included a Black Kite over Spittal, Pembrokeshire, whilst the Glossy
Ibis at Arnside, Cumbria is likely to have been the individual from nearby
Leighton Moss RSPB, Lancashire have a morning away.
Long staying rarities still present today included the Greater Yellowlegs and White-billed Diver in Aberdeenshire (with another of the latter still in Moray), Thayer's Gull and Black-winged Stilt in Lincolnshire, two Long-billed Dowitchers and a Spotted Sandpiper in Somerset and Glossy Ibises in Cleveland, Lancashire and Dorset. |
