  For many birders the highlight of the day was the continued presence of both the Pacific Diver at Farnham, North Yorkshire and American Robin at Bingley, West Yorkshire - two fantastic Nearctic rarities within twenty miles of each other!

Breaking news came from Cornwall of a white morph Gyr at Stepper Point, Padstow where it has apparently been present for several weeks.

Elsewhere, the Barrow's Goldeneye remained in Callander, Forth as did the Black-eared Kite at Snettisham, Norfolk, Black-throated Thrush on the Isle of Bute, Argyll, Bufflehead at Lough Atedaun, Co Clare and Forster's Terns in both Co Cork and Co Galway.
