The highlight of the day way the discovery of a Bonaparte's Gull in Highland at
Thurso: perhaps this is the same individual has now visited this location on seven
occasions since 12th September 2004. Elsewhere, a Glossy Ibis arrived at Arundel, West Sussex, and the presence of two
White-billed Divers off Lewis, Western Isles, was confirmed. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Harlequin Duck on the Western Isles, American Coot in County Galway, Pied-billed Grebe in Somerset, Penduline Tit in Kent, Red-breasted Goose in Hampshire, Blue-winged Teal in County Kerry, Lesser Yellowlegs in Devon, King Eider on the Shetland Isles, White-billed Divers in Aberdeenshire and the Orkney Isles, Ferruginous Duck in Oxfordshire, Northern Harrier in County Wexford, Black-bellied Dipper in Norfolk, and single Lesser Scaups in Clyde, Cornwall, Glamorgan, Gwent, Herefordshire and Lincolnshire. Otherwise, coastal White-spotted Bluethroats were located in Devon, Dorset, Isle of Wight and Kent, a Kentish Plover remained in East Sussex, as did both the Rose-coloured Starling and American Wigeon in Devon, and pan-British totals included seven Ring-necked Ducks, 17 Garganey, 40 Ring Ouzels and 58 Black Redstarts. |
