| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Caspian Tern at Loch of Hillwell, Shetland
Isles: the first of the year in Britain, and only the fourth to be recorded alive in Shetland. Elsewhere, in Norfolk the territorial Spectacled Warbler remained and the Black Stork showed again briefly, in Devon the Ross's Gull continued to linger, as did the Whiskered Tern on the Western Isles, Great Reed Warbler on the Shetland Isles, King Eider in Aberdeenshire, and the breeding pair of Black-winged Stilts in West Sussex. In Northumberland a Great Reed Warbler was new at Cresswell Pond. Scarcities included a total of seven Red-backed Shrikes, four Glossy Ibises, two Rose-coloured Starlings, Buff-breasted Sandpiper and Woodchat Shrike (both Cleveland), Purple Heron (Cornwall), Marsh Warbler (Shetland Isles), Hoopoe (Aberdeenshire), Pectoral Sandpiper (Suffolk), American Wigeon (Highland), and Ring-necked Duck (County Down). |
