  More new rarities were discovered today, with a Dusky Warbler in Cornwall and 2.White-billed Divers seen off Lewis. The now-expected records of White-billed Diver from the Western Isles appear to be occurring over a greater time-span than was first realised with most birds in previous years found during April.

The Laughing Gull performed well Devon, though it had moved slightly from yesterday. Also popular in the South-west were the Cattle Egret in Devon and Spotted Sandpiper in Cornwall. Plenty of other rarities were still present including the two Barrow's Goldeneyes the Black-eared Kite still in Norfolk and the Long-billed Dowitcher in Kent
