(1954), Kennedy (1961), Irish Bird Reports (1953 to 2003), Irish Rare Bird Reports (2004 to 2019), Irish East Coast Bird Reports (1980 to 2003), Irish Scarce Migrant Reports (2004 to 2008), The Birds of Dublin and Wicklow (Hutchinson 1975) and North Bull Island Bird Reports (2011 to 2020). In addition, some records not included in any of the previous that are posted on the Irish Birding, eBird Ireland and Birds of North Bull Island web- sites are included. A few records have been communicated by the observer. Species ranges indicated are very general just to provide a broad outline.
