| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Myrtle Warbler in County Cork on Dursey Island. Elsewhere, a
Pallid Harrier was identified at Firsby Reservoir, South Yorkshire, where it has already been present for three weeks. On the Shetland Isles a Pallas's Grasshopper Warbler was new on Fair Isle, whilst American Buff-bellied Pipit, Isabelline Shrike, Hornemann's Arctic Redpoll, Siberian Stonechat, American Golden Plover, Surf Scoter, Little Auk, Red-backed Shrike, two Red-breasted Flycatchers, three Barred Warblers and 11 Yellow-browed Warblers remained around the archipelago. Meanwhile, on the Isles of Scilly the Western Bonelli's Warbler showed, along with two Ortolan Buntings, Red-breasted Flycatcher, Buff-breasted Sandpiper and Dotterel. Other lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Swainson's Thrush on the Western Isles, American Buff-bellied Pipit in County Kerry, Short-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, two Long-billed Dowitchers in Gloucestershire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Argyll, American Golden Plovers in County Clare, Orkney Isles and Western Isles, Ortolan Bunting in County Cork, Lesser Scaup in Somerset, and Glossy Ibis in Pembrokeshire. |
