| The second Eastern Olivaceous Warbler for Fife was found today at
Kilminning, Fife Ness. This is, coincidentally, the same site which hosted a
bird earlier in the autumn that some called as this species, but which later
turned out to be a Chiffchaff. Further south, a male Pied Wheatear
arrived on Holy Island, Northumberland, where it remained until dusk, and a
Subalpine Warbler was seen briefly on Portland, Dorset.
Shetland logged a further six Olive-backed Pipits, along with a Little Bunting at Burravoe on Yell. The Isles of Scilly produced a Red-throated Pipit on St Agnes and a Little Bunting on St Mary's. Other new discoveries today included a Hornemann's Arctic Redpoll at Port Nis on Lewis, Western Isles, a Radde's Warbler on Bardsey Island, Gwynedd, a Lesser Yellowlegs on Hayling Island, Hampshire, a Red-breasted Goose at South Swale NR, Kent, a Blue-winged Teal at Rahasane Turlough, County Galway, Olive-backed Pipit and Little Bunting in Orkney (on Westray and North Ronaldsay respectively), two Red-throated Pipits and an American Golden Plover in Cornwall (with further Red-throated Pipits in County Cork and Norfolk) and a Glossy Ibis at Rainham Marshes RSPB, London. Lingering rarity highlights included both Blackpoll Warbler and Solitary Sandpiper on the Isles of Scilly, Forster's Tern in County Louth, Azorean Yellow-legged Gull in Leicestershire, Tawny Pipit in Yorkshire, Citrine Wagtail in Gwynedd, Long-billed Dowitchers in Gloucestershire and Cheshire and two Spotted Sandpipers together in County Clare. |
