| A Western Bonelli's Warbler and an Ortolan Bunting were both
discovered on The Garrison, St Mary's, Isles of Scilly, whilst another of the
latter was at Skibbereen, County Cork. A Semipalmated Sandpiper was at
Borth, Ceredigion, with two at Garretstown, County Cork, and an American
Golden Plover was at Carrahane Strand, County Kerry.
The North American peep remained at Hoylake, Wirral, but opinion remains divided over its identification (Western or Semipalmated Sandpiper). Other lingering rarities included the Short-billed Dowitchers in Dorset and the Isles of Scilly, Baillon's Crake in London, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Lothian, White-rumped Sandpiper in Somerset, Long-billed Dowitcher in Gloucestershire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Cornwall, American Golden Plovers in Orkney (3) and Western Isles (2), Glossy Ibises in Cambridgeshire and County Wexford, Black Duck in County Mayo, Lesser Scaup in Somerset and Ferruginous Duck in Lincolnshire. |
