	A male Little Bittern showed on and off throughout the afternoon and into the evening at Titchwell RSPB, Norfolk. Present for its third day, this little gem will no doubt prove popular if it lingers at the reserve. In Leicestershire, the wandering adult Whiskered Tern visited Eyebrook Reservoir and in Cumbria the Hudsonian Whimbrel attracted plenty of attention over the high tide period on Walney Island. Kent continued to host the Great Reed Warbler near Lydd and the Squacco Heron at Ham Marshes/Ham Road Gravel Pits and other bits and pieces scattered around Britain included Melodious Warbler singing on Bardsey Island, Gwynedd and Icterine Warbler on North Ronaldsay, Orkney.
