| The highlight of the day was the relocation of the Pacific Swift on the Shetland Isles on Noss; 22 miles to the north northeast of where it was found on Sunday. Discoveries elsewhere included a Baird's Sandpiper in Lincolnshire at Alkborough Flats, a Subalpine Warbler species on Isle of Man at Calf of Man, a returning White-spotted Bluethroat in Gloucestershire at Slimbridge, Wilson's Petrel at sea off the Isles of Scilly, and Bee-eaters briefly in both Merseyside and Suffolk. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Black-browed Albatross in East Yorkshire, American Black Tern in Northumberland, territorial Great Reed Warblers in both Norfolk and Nottinghamshire, Iberian Chiffchaff in London, Red-rumped Swallow on the Orkney Isles, seven Bee-eaters together in Norfolk, and the family party of six Black-winged Stilts in South Yorkshire. Scarcities included American Golden Plover (County Wexford), Pectoral Sandpiper (Staffordshire), Hoopoe (Hertfordshire), Green-winged Teal (Shetland), Red-necked Phalarope (Orkney), Glossy Ibis (Suffolk), two Golden Orioles, and three Rose-coloured Starlings. |
