| Startling news from the Western Isles today where a Black-billed Cuckoo showed well all evening on North Uist at Bayhead: the spring record of this much-wanted species in Britain. In Devon the Lammergeier was reported again, on Dartmoor, over the Bellever Forest before flying east. Other rarities discovered today were a Stilt Sandpiper in Hampshire at Pennington Marshes, Gull-billed Tern in Kent at Dungeness, Red-throated Pipit on Fair Isles, and Savi's Warbler on the Shetland Isles at Sumburgh, with brief encounters including Whiskered Tern in Nottinghamshire, Black Kite in Suffolk, and Bee-eaters in both Norfolk and Suffolk. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Dalmatian Pelican in Cornwall, Great Spotted Cuckoo in Dorset, Pacific Golden Plover in Aberdeenshire, two Whiskered Terns in Cleveland, two Black-winged Stilts in Essex, Great Reed Warbler in Cambridgeshire, Red-footed Falcon on Wiltshire, King Eider in County Sligo, Spotted Sandpiper, Iberian Chiffchaff and Red-rumped Swallow on the Isles of Scilly, Iberian Chiffchaff in London, and Savi's Warblers in Somerset, Suffolk and County Wicklow. |
