Saturday 10th March 2007  
  Two Red-breasted Geese with Dark-bellied Brent Geese at Warham Greens, Norfolk was an interesting discovery and seem most likely to be the pair found in the Netherlands in early autumn 2006 before relocating to coastal Lincolnshire and spending the period 12th October to 23rd January 2007 there with a flock of over wintering Dark-bellied Brent Geese.

In Cornwall the white Gyr was again only seen at dawn whilst the White-billed Diver, Spotted Sandpiper and Dusky Warbler showed throughout the day. Elsewhere in England the Long-billed Dowitcher crossed the Suffolk-Essex border on several occasions and in Devon the Laughing Gull relocated to Bowling Green Marsh.

In Scotland Barrow's Goldeneye, Snowy Owl, White-tailed Eagle, Lesser Scaup all remained and in Wales the Black Scoter was seen again at Llanfairfechan, Conwy.
