| News of the day related to the presence of a male Wilson's Warbler on
Dursey Island, County Cork, for the last three days. It was first glimpsed on
Wednesday evening, with a single sighting yesterday and it remained in a garden
at the west end of the island today, where it maintained its elusiveness.
From the east, a first-winter Brown Shrike was discovered in Hampshire at Chilling near Hook-with-Warsash, where it represented the first record for the county. Other new discoveries today included a female Red-footed Falcon near Aylsham, Norfolk, a Blyth's Reed Warbler at Quendale, Shetland and an Azorean Yellow-legged Gull in Leicestershire. New Nearctic waders included a Lesser Yellowlegs at Murlach, County Galway and American Golden Plovers in Shetland (two), Cumbria, County Donegal, County Galway and the Isles of Scilly. The Irish Elegant Tern appeared in County Clare briefly, before heading straight back to County Kerry this evening. Other lingering rarities highlights included the Lesser Grey Shrike in Suffolk, three Blue-winged Teals in Lincolnshire, Lesser Yellowlegs' in Devon and County Wexford, Baird's Sandpiper in County Kerry, Semipalmated Sandpiper in County Wexford, Laughing Gull in Orkney, Bonaparte's Gulls in Lancashire, Devon and the Isles of Scilly and four Two-barred Crossbills in Norfolk. |
