| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Bridled Tern in an Arctic Tern colony on Fair Isle. Elsewhere on the Shetland Isles, a
Lesser Grey Shrike was found on Unst at Baltasound. Lingering rarities were headlined by the Short-toed Eagle still in the Ashdown Forest, East Sussex, whilst the Scops Owl remained on the Orkney Isles, as did the territorial Spectacled Warbler in Norfolk, Ross's Gull and Bonaparte's Gull together in Devon, Greenish Warbler in Lothian, Blue-winged Teal and Savi's Warbler together in Aberdeenshire, the family of five Black-winged Stilts in West Sussex, and now two Lesser Scaups in Cheshire. Scarcities included White-winged Black Tern (Anglesey), Red-breasted Flycatcher and American Wigeon (Western Isles), Red-necked Phalarope (Norfolk), Shorelark (Cornwall), Marsh Warbler (Orkney Isles), Hoopoe (Wiltshire), Pectoral Sandpiper (West Yorkshire), Rose-coloured Starling (County Galway and Suffolk), and Glossy Ibis (Lincolnshire and Perrth and Kinross). |
