| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Citrine Wagtail on Bardsey Island, Gwynedd. Other new rarities comprised an
Ortolan Bunting in Cornwall on The Lizard, American Golden Plover on Benbecula, Western Isles, and a brief
Red-throated Pipit on the Wirral. A Lanceolated Warbler remained on Fair Isle, with American Golden Plover, two Bluethroats, two Common Rosefinches, Red-breasted Flycatcher, Richard's Pipit, Barred Warbler and 24 Greenland Redpolls noted elsewhere on the Shetland Isles. Meanwhile, on the Isles of Scilly American Golden Plover, Rose-coloured Starling, Richard's Pipit, Dotterel, two Wrynecks and seven Yellow-browed Warblers were all logged. Lingering rarities included Paddyfield Warbler, Olive-backed Pipit and two Glossy Ibises in Cornwall, Baird's Sandpiper in County Cork, Long-billed Dowitcher in both Gloucestershire and Lincolnshire, Lesser Yellowlegs in both County Dublin and Somerset, and American Golden Plover on the Orkney Isles. The best of the rest were a Woodchat Shrike in County Galway, Purple Heron in Dorset, Red-backed Shrike in Wiltshire and American Wigeon in West Yorkshire. |
