| Discoveries today included a Semipalmated Sandpiper in County Wicklow at Poulaphouca Reservoir, a
White-rumped Sandpiper in East Yorkshire at Kilnsea, and a Black Kite in Ceredigion at Nant Y Arian; the latter presumably the same individual as that seen yesterday
ten miles to the northeast in Powys. In County Louth the Forster's Tern returned to Dundalk to undertake its complete moult; as it has done most autumns since 2006. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Turkestan Shrike and Black-browed Albatross together in East Yorkshire, Least Sandpiper in Cornwall, Stilt Sandpiper in Lincolnshire, Black Scoter in Aberdeenshire, Squacco Heron in West Sussex, Whiskered Tern in Hampshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Kent, King Eider in Lothian, Lesser Yellowlegs in Hampshire, Norfolk, and the Isles of Scilly, White-rumped Sandpiper and at least seven Bee-eaters in Norfolk, Ferruginous Ducks in Northamptonshire and Warwickshire (2), and a Wilson's Petrel at sea off Scilly. Scarcities included Temminck's Stint (Lancashire), Sabine's Gull (East Yorkshire), Ring-necked Duck (Anglesey), two each of both Cory's Shearwater and Pectoral Sandpiper, three of Purple Heron and Surf Scoter, and a total of 18 Glossy Ibises. |
