An Olive-backed Pipit was an unexpected arrival to a garden in Leiston,
Suffolk. This is the third to be found in February, with previous records being
from Lynford Arboretum, Norfolk from 2nd to 20th in 2002 and in Bracknell,
Berkshire from 19th to 15th April 1984. Two Penduline Tits were
discovered at Dungeness, Kent, and a new first-winter American Herring Gull
was in Campbeltown harbour, Argyll. The drake Blue-winged Teal has
returned to Threave in Dumfries and Galloway, being first seen here in November
2010.
Lingering rarity highlights seen today included the Myrtle Warbler in County Durham, American Coot, Franklin's Gull and Black Duck in Highland, single Forster's Terns in Galway and Mayo, Red-flanked Bluetail on the Gloucestershire /Wiltshire border, American Buff-bellied Pipit in Cheshire, Ross's Gull in Glamorgan and Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Warwickshire. |
