| The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Slaty-backed Gull at Killybegs, County Donegal, where it showed well in the
afternoon. The second record for Ireland, with a further record from Britain. Rarities elsewhere included a Blue-winged Teal new on the Orkney Isles in Harray, Mainland, whilst lingering rarities comprised the Harlequin Duck and Spotted Sandpiper both still in Aberdeenshire, American Coot in County Kerry, Ivory Gull in Highland, Laughing Gull in County Cork, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Richardson's Cackling Goose on the Western Isles, Lesser Yellowlegs in East Sussex, Dusky Warbler in West Sussex, and Ferruginous Duck in Hampshire. Notable scarcities included Night Heron (Kent), Rose-coloured Starling (Northumberland), Richard's Pipit (North Yorkshire), Kumlien's Gull (Warwickshire), Caspian Gull (Argyll), and Surf Scoter (County Wexford). |
