| New birds discovered today included a Western Bonelli's Warbler in
Dorset, trapped and ringed at Portland Bill, a Terek Sandpiper at
Swalecliffe, Kent and a Fea's Petrel past the Bridges of Ross, County
Clare. A Blyth's Reed Warbler trapped and ringed on Fair Isle was the
second individual on the island in three days, and just the fifth August record
in Britain.
The only lingering rarities seen again today were the Franklin's Gull in the evening roost at Cley, Norfolk, and at least one of the breeding Bee-eaters on the Isle of Wight. Scarcities included a Melodious Warbler in Sussex, Wryneck in London, Night Heron in Warwickshire, Long-tailed Skua in Sussex and Temminck's Stint in Yorkshire. |
