| Bird of the day is once again an Ivory Gull, this time at Patrington
Haven, East Yorkshire, which was found late afternoon and was present until
dusk. If accepted as different birds, the seven so far this year is the biggest
yearly total ever, beating the six in 1980 and five in 1916.
A second female King Eider arrived at Gullane, Lothian, and an apparently unringed Red-breasted Goose was found with the Barnacle Geese at Loaningfoot, Dumfries and Galloway. Glossy Ibises were at Holme Pierrepont, Nottinghamshire and Loch na Revil, Western Isles (the latter killed by a Buzzard). Lingering rarities included the Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Northamptonshire, Two-barred Crossbills in Gloucestershire (four), Shropshire (three) and Yorkshire (eight), Blue-winged Teal on Orkney and Ferruginous Duck in Hampshire. |
