Sunday 14th April 2024  
  A Western Subalpine Warbler was found at Portland Bill in Dorset, a Squacco Heron turned up on Skokholm Island in Pembrokeshire this evening, one (possibly two) Red-rumped Swallows were found on Scilly - on St.Martin's and St.Mary's, two Lesser Scaups were located near Shelley in Suffolk and two new Alpine Swifts were noted: in County Wicklow and in East Norfolk.

Frampton Marsh in Lincolnshire continued its purple patch with Bonaparte's Gull, Lesser Yellowlegs, Black-winged Stilt and Red-breasted Goose all lingering. Other lingering rarities included the Myrtle Warbler, in nearly full summer plumage, at Kilwinnig in Ayrshire, Western Subalpine Warbler in County Wexford, Pallid Swift on Scilly, Pallid Harriers in Glamorgan and Carmarthenshire, Forster's Tern in Dorset, Long-billed Dowitcher and Red-breasted Goose in Norfolk with another Long-billed Dowitcher still in County Wicklow, Ferriginous Ducks in Kent and Warwickshire and Lesser Scaups in Glamorgan and County Waterford.
