Vagrant
A North American species which has been recorded 15 times in Britain (Colston et al 991), including birds at Skokholm on 5 October 1967 (C. Britton), at Hook on 6-7 May 1979 (D. Petrie, I. Williams) and at Roch from early January to 24 April 1989 (J.W. Donovan, J. Scammel et al.).
The latter bird was seen by observers from all over Britain, most of whom responded by making a donation to the Dyfed Wildlife Trust, the money being used to construct a hide at Marloes Mere in recognition of the hospitality shown by Mr and Mrs Scammel during the bird's stay.
