Rarities discovered today comprised a Short-toed Treecreeper in Kent at Langdon Bay, a Spotted Sandpiper in Fife on the Isle of May, Bonelli's Warbler species both in County Cork on Cape Clear and in Cornwall at Morvah, a Citrine Wagtail on the Orkney Isles on North Ronaldsay, and Black Kites briefly in Gwynedd and Wiltshire. Seabirds were headlined by the Brown Booby relocating from North Yorkshire to Cleveland where it roosted at Seal Sands and another Brown Booby still between Fife and Lothian. The Red-footed Booby remains off the Isles of Scilly with national totals of nine Long-tailed Skuas, 18 Great Shearwaters, and 315 Cory's Shearwaters. Nearctic waders today were a Semipalmated Sandpiper still in County Cork, Long-billed Dowitchers in both Norfolk and Orkney, three American Golden Plovers, four Pectoral Sandpipers, and six Buff-breasted Sandpipers. Other rarities confirmed as still present were the Yellow Warbler on the Shetland Isles, two Blue-winged Teals together in East Yorkshire, King Eider in Lothian, Ferruginous Duck in Warwickshire, and Bonaparte's Gulls in both County Cork and Kent. |
