The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Dusky Warbler at Marsh
Lane NR, West Midlands. Despite the extreme rarity of this species away from the
coast, however, it is the second record for the county, following a bird at
Tipton for three days in mid-November 1996. A group of three White-rumped
Sandpipers were located on the Hayle Estuary RSPB, Cornwall, an adult and
two juveniles, with another single juvenile in Lincolnshire at Frampton Marsh
RSPB. A male Rustic Bunting was seen at Cove Bay, Aberdeenshire, and
new/relocating Glossy Ibises today were seen at Minsmere RSPB and
Hollesley Marshes RSPB, Suffolk and Loch of Strathbeg RSPB, Aberdeenshire.
Lingering Mega rarities included the Cape May Warbler in Shetland (for its 10th day), Mourning Dove in Highland, Hermit Thrush in Cornwall and White's Thrush on the Isles of Scilly. The Northern Harrier remained in Cambridgeshire, as did the Sardinian Warbler in Borders, Subalpine Warbler on the Isles of Scilly, White-billed Diver in County Kerry, Bonaparte's Gull in Northumberland, Red-breasted Goose in Hampshire and Glossy Ibises in Kent, Essex (two) and Norfolk. |
