| Significant late news from Thursday concerned an immature Lammergeier
in Gwent. It was videoed on a rock by the Severn Estuary at Sudbrook, before it
flew up the channel then headed west. It appears to be the individual present in
Belgium on Monday, and is thought to be a wild bird. This would represent the
first record for Britain.
Back to today, the Green Warbler remained at Baltasound on Unst, Shetland, where it showed well into the evening. New discoveries today included an Eastern Subalpine Warbler on St Agnes, Isles of Scilly, and Black Kites over Bockhill, Gillingham and Grove Ferry (all Kent), Ashington (Sussex), North Tuddenham (Norfolk) and South Slob (County Wexford). Lingering rarities seen today included the Dalmatian Pelican in Cornwall, Great Spotted Cuckoo in Dorset, Snowy Owl and Iberian Chiffchaff in the Isles of Scilly, Franklin's Gull, Red-footed Falcon and two Black-winged Stilts in Essex, two Whiskered Terns and a Great Reed Warbler in Cleveland, another Great Reed Warbler in Cambridgeshire, Western Subalpine Warbler in Northumberland, Thrush Nightingale in Fife, Bee-eater in Norfolk, Bonaparte's Gull in Carmarthenshire and King Eider in Highland. |
