| Highlight of the day was the (presumed) reappearance of the Cedar Waxwing
on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly. First described by a non-birder on 2nd June,
it was rediscovered a few hundred yards away on Trench Lane late morning today,
where it was present on and off until 12.50pm, with no further sightings by the
evening.
New Bee-eaters found today included one west over Dowsby Fen, Lincolnshire and ten north over Minsmere RSPB, Suffolk (with three others lingering on Barra, Western Isles). Other lingering rarities included the Cretzschmar's Bunting in Gwynedd, Hudsonian Whimbrel in Sussex, Greater Yellowlegs in Hampshire, Great Reed Warbler in Shetland and White-rumped Sandpiper in Norfolk. Scarcity highlights involved singles of Melodious Warbler, Marsh Warbler, Woodchat Shrike, Rose-coloured Starling, Golden Oriole, Spotted Crake, American Wigeon and Purple Heron and two each of Red-backed Shrike and Icterine Warbler. |
