	Although a busy day with the flood of migrants continuing – few new rarities were discovered, the best being a brief Black Kite near Sandwich, Kent and Woodchat Shrikes at both Porthgwarra, Cornwall and Pett Level, Sussex – the former briefly accompanied by a Bee-eater and the latter by a Cattle Egret! A showy Bluethroat at Staines Moor, Surrey proved predictably popular whilst a dapper Common Rosefinch at Portland Bill, Dorset gave most would-be observers the run around.
