| Bird of the day was the Bobolink in Shetland at Brake, Mainland, which
showed well from early afternoon onwards. The Isles of Scilly struck back an
hour or so later with a Blackpoll Warbler on St Mary's at Content, but
Bobolink remains the rarer of the two. A Desert Wheatear in Essex was
unexpectedly found inland at Abberton Reservoir. Other new rarities today
included an American Buff-bellied Pipit in Shetland, Lesser Yellowlegs
in Lincolnshire, Long-billed Dowitcher in Carmarthenshire,
White-rumped Sandpiper in Highland, Bee-eater in Devon, Little
Bunting in Yorkshire, Olive-backed Pipit in Cornwall and Lesser
Scaup in County Cork.
Lingering rarity highlights included the Siberian Rubythroat on Fair Isle, Eastern Olivaceous Warbler in Fife, Siberian Stonechat in Devon, Red-throated Pipit and Little Bunting in the Isles of Scilly, Penduline Tit in Kent, Dusky Warbler in County Durham, Olive-backed Pipit in Norfolk, Red-breasted Geese in Hampshire and Argyll, Lesser Yellowlegs' in Lancashire and Devon and White-rumped Sandpiper in Norfolk. |
