| The highlight of the day was a new Ross's Gull discovered at Lady's Island Lake, County Wexford. Elsewhere in
Ireland the Ross's Gull and Laughing Gull both remained in County Cork, and
both Black Duck and King Eider were logged in County Mayo. Rarities in Britain comprised the American Coot, Black Duck and Franklin's Gull all still in Highland, American Herring Gull again in Argyll, Red-flanked Bluetail in Wiltshire, Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Warwickshire, Two-barred Crossbills in Gloucestershire (10) and South Yorkshire (2), King Eider in Fife, Lesser Scaup in Cornwall and Staffordshire, and Marbled Duck in Northamptonshire. In Kent the probable Chinese Pond Heron remained in Saltwood. Scarcities included two Snow Geese, three each of both Surf Scoter and Rough-legged Buzzard, four Glossy Ibises, and 15 Parrot Crossbills. Gull tallies included 49 Glaucous, 22 Iceland, 14 Kumlien's, eight Caspian and six Ring-billed. |
