Monday 6th November 2006  
  With few new rarities being found a White-rumped Sandpiper in Co Mayo was the best of the bunch. A male King Eider reappeared at Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, the Desert Wheatear and two Little Buntings remained on the Isles of Scilly and the Dusky Warbler continued at Lowestoft, Suffolk. A late Woodchat Shrike lingered near Marlborough, Devon and the nineteenth Pallas's Warbler of the autumn was reported in Chiswick, London.

Long staying rarities that are beginning to look that they may spend the winter include the Glossy Ibis in Lancashire, Spotted Sandpiper in Cornwall, Long-billed Dowitcher in Kent and Red-breasted Geese in Dorset and Lincolnshire (two).
