Abstract: The presented first report of the Rare Birds Panel in Poland includes the data from 2018 and, for some species, also the data from previous years. The report presents data on 35 rare non-breeding species. In the discussed period high or maximum numbers were recorded for e.g. the Red-breasted Goose Branta ruficollis, Egyptian Goose Alopochen aegyptiaca, Black-winged Stilt Himantopus himantopus, Purple Sandpiper Calidris maritima, Black-legged Kittiwake Rissa tridactyla, Blyth’s Reed Warbler Acrocephalus dumetorum, Yellow-browed Warbler Phylloscopus inornatus and Ring Ouzel Turdus torquatus (outside mountains). On the other hand, the relatively low numbers, compared to long-term data, were recorded for e.g. the Red-necked Phalarope Phalaropus lobatus, Eurasian Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia, Homeyer’s Grey Great Shrike Lanius excubitor homeyeri and Horned Lark Eremophila alpestris.
