| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Great Snipe on Foula. Elsewhere on the Shetland Isles
both the Pechora Pipit and Eastern Subalpine Warbler both remained on Unst, as did the
Red-throated Pipit on Fair Isle, and Little Bunting on Out Skerries, whilst scarcities around the archipelago included
Short-toed Lark, Marsh Warbler, Bluethroat, Richard's
Pipit, Great Grey Shrike, Temminck's Stint and Greenland
Redpoll, two each of both Rose-coloured Starling and Red-breasted
Flycatcher, three Barred Warblers, five Common Rosefinches, and eight
Yellow-browed Warblers. Meanwhile, on the Isles of Scilly White-spotted
Bluethroat, Red-breasted Flycatcher, Barred Warbler, Wryneck and
Yellow-browed Warbler were all noted. Other rarities today comprised the Masked Shrike still in East Yorkshire at Kilnsea, Lesser Yellowlegs in Hampshire, Blue-winged Teal in Northumberland and a Black Kite briefly in Kent. Seabirds on the move were headlined by a Cory's Shearwater passing Norfolk, whilst national totals of six Sabine's Gulls, 16 Long-tailed Skuas, 22 Pomarine Skuas and 95 Balearic Shearwaters were logged. |
