Sunday 13th July 2014  
  The first Fea's Petrel of the year was seen mid morning from a boat off Easington, Yorkshire. There are three previous mid summer records from the North Sea: 22nd July 2013 off the Northumberland coast, 12th June 1999 off Flamborough, Yorkshire and 26th June 1997 along the North Norfolk coast. Nearby, the adult Bridled Tern went on a short jaunt southwards, being seen first off Whitburn, County Durham, followed by Hartlepool, Cleveland, but it was lost mid morning and didn't resurface anywhere further south or north.

Good news from Sussex regarding the Black-winged Stilts: all three chicks were confirmed as being alive and well, after not being seen since 17th June. The Ross's Gull remained in Devon, as did the Lesser Yellowlegs in Lincolnshire, Spotted Sandpiper in Clyde and Lesser Scaup in Somerset.
