| The highlight of the day was a brief Blyth's Pipit at Spurn, East Yorkshire. Elsewhere, confirmed rarities comprised a
Dusky Warbler new on the Shetland Isles on Unst, the Hudsonian Whimbrel
still in Cornwall, Pallid Harrier again in Lincolnshire, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Gloucestershire,
Lesser Yellowlegs in Norfolk, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Lesser Scaup
in County Kerry, and the Arctic Warbler was reported again in County Durham. Notable scarcities were Ortolan Bunting (Shetland Isles), Serin (Devon), Little Bunting (County Donegal), Surf Scoter (Lothian), Cattle Egret (County Wexford), two each of American Golden Plover, Rough-legged Buzzard, Ring-necked Duck, Yellow-browed Warbler and Waxwing, three Glossy Ibises and seven Great Grey Shrikes. Inconclusive sightings included a probable Black-and-white Warbler briefly in Worcestershire, and single swifts in Cumbria, Lothian and Glamorgan, with at least the latter thought likely to be Pallid Swift. |
