	The Isles of Scilly stole the show today, producing a Subalpine Warbler on St.Agnes and a probable Semipalmated Sandpiper on Bryher. Yesterday's White-rumped Sandpiper was relocated on the former island and St.Mary's offered a Tawny Pipit briefly on the golf course. In Argyll the Booted Warbler and adult American Golden Plover remained on Tiree and on Mainland Shetland the Red-rumped Swallow returned to Hoswick. The stunning Snowy Owl remained on North Uist, a Great White Egret was at Old Hall Marshes RSPB, Essex and Lesser Yellowlegs remained at Dundrum Inner Bay, County Down. The best of the rest included the Night Heron at Weir Wood Reservoir, Sussex, Hoopoe at Lawford, Essex, a brief juvenile Pectoral Sandpiper on Fleetwood Golf Course, Lancashire, juvenile Temminck's Stint still at Foxcote Reservoir, Buckinghamshire, Red-backed Shrike at Reculver, Kent and another impressive movement of Great Shearwaters off Ireland.
