Monday 14th August 2006  
  Whilst a Greenish Warbler on Inner Farne, Northumberland was the only new rarity discovered the day enjoyed a reasonable variety of birds. At Portland Bill, Dorset both Melodious Warbler and Wryneck were found and North Sea seawatchers enjoyed a scattering of Long-tailed Skuas, Balearic Shearwaters and Leach's Petrel.

The Stilt Sandpiper remained on Brownsea Island, Dorset with a Red-necked Phalarope new in at Elton Hall Flash, Cheshire and Spotted Crakes at both Blacktoft Sands, East Yorkshire and Beddington, London. A Long-tailed Skua was well inland at Rutland Water, Leicestershire.
