| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Gull-billed Tern along the border between Carmarthenshire and Glamorgan, at the Loughor Estuary. Elsewhere, rarities comprised the Little Swift still on the Wirral,
Black Scoter, King Eider and four Surf Scoters all together in Aberdeenshire,
River Warbler still on the Shetland Isles, Pacific Golden Plover in Norfolk, the territorial
Iberian Chiffchaff in Somerset, and single Glossy Ibises in both Pembrokeshire and County Wexford. Scarcities included the Short-toed Lark still in County Wexford, Icterine Warbler on the Shetland Isles, Red-backed Shrikes in both East Yorkshire and Northumberland, Grey Phalarope in Highland, and three White Storks together in West Sussex. A Rose-coloured Starling arrived at Mizen Head, County Cork (whilst another reappeared in Conwy), bringing the total for the summer influx to 29 birds. |
