  A pelagic three miles southwest of Bishop Rock, Scilly produced a Wilson's Petrel this evening and in Cornwall a Black Kite flew south over Trethorne at 3.30pm. The Oxfordshire Scops Owl continued to entertain the crowds in Thrupp during the hours of darkness, and not too far away the Bedfordshire Red-footed Falcon was still present at Marston Vale Millennium Country Park, but only until midday. In Scotland the Great Reed Warbler remained at Loch of Kinnordy RSPB, Angus. 

Late news from yesterday came in the form of a probable River Warbler on Fair Isle, Shetland. A twitchable River Warbler would no doubt prove incredibly popular, as it has been a whole decade since one was available to the masses.
