  The autumn continued to get quieter today, with no new rarities reported anywhere. However, birds from previous days continued to be seen, including the Barrow's Goldeneye in County Down, the Dusky Warbler in Suffolk, the Glossy Ibis in Lancashire and the Red-breasted Goose in Dorset.

The Black Kite was seen again briefly at Freiston Shore but may be difficult to connect with as it appears to have been ranging over a large area. Two Crag Martins seen today in Holland added to the five of birds seen in Sweden and the sighting in Surrey hold hope that the autumn isn't quite finished yet.
