The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Desert Wheatear at Berry Head, Devon;
the fifth of the autumn but the third in south Devon this week. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were both the White-winged Scoter and King Eider in Lothian, Ross's Goose in Ayrshire, Bonaparte's Gull in County Clare, Richardson's Cackling Goose in Argyll, Ferruginous Ducks in both Hampshire and Surrey, and Lesser Scaups in Argyll (3), Devon (2), County Sligo, and the Western Isles. Scarcities included Serin and Waxwing (County Durham), Great Shearwater (Lincolnshire), Green-winged Teal (Hampshire), Black Brant (Dorset), Glossy Ibis (Devon), three American Wigeons, five Great Grey Shrikes, six each of Shorelark and Grey Phalarope, and a total of 17 Ring-necked Ducks. |
