Thursday 21st June 2007  
  A quiet summer day produced only one report of a new rarity, a Glossy Ibis on Blakeney freshmarsh, Norfolk. Not far along the coast the Little Bittern failed to show at Titchwell RSPB, but in Cumbria the Hudsonian Whimbrel was still present, albeit elusive. The only other rarity news relating to today was the continuing presence of the first-summer Bonaparte's Gull on South Uist, Western Isles.

At Flamborough Head, East Yorkshire, a first-summer male Common Rosefinch was in song and south-coast seawatchers enjoyed a scattering of Balearic Shearwaters.
