| The highlight of the day was the confirmation of a Lanceolated Warbler on the Shetland Isles at Quendale, with the
Siberian Rubythroat still nearby at Levenwick, where a White's Thrush
was also reported briefly, a Radde's Warbler new at Walls, a Siberian Stonechat new on Fetlar, along with archipelago totals of seven
Yellow-browed Warblers, six Olive-backed Pipits, three each of Little Bunting and
Great Grey Shrike, two each of Short-toed Lark and Dotterel, and single
Hoopoe, Bluethroat and Lapland Bunting. On the Isles of Scilly Red-breasted Flycatcher, Barred Warbler, Dotterel, two Common Rosefinches and three Yellow-browed Warblers were noted. Rarities elsewhere included the Scarlet Tanager still on the Western Isles, Solitary Sandpiper in County Wexford, Little Crake in Suffolk, Steppe Grey Shrike in Norfolk, Pechora Pipit and five Olive-backed Pipits on the Orkney Isles, and in Aberdeenshire, brief Pallid Harrier, Radde's Warbler and Little Bunting. A Barolo Shearwater seen at sea off Land's End, Cornwall today followed one at sea off County Clare yesterday. |
