	The five new rarities discovered today were headlined by the first Aquatic Warbler of the autumn, at Hope Point, Kent. Otherwise, a Black Stork was seen briefly at Abbotsbury and Burton Bradstock in Dorset, a Spotted Sandpiper appeared at Chew Valley Lake in Somerset, a White-winged Black Tern briefly in Langstone Harbour, Hampshire and a Bonaparte's Gull reported at Scurdie Ness, Angus. In Wales the popular Roller remained at Wernffrwd, Glamorgan as did the Gull-billed Tern at Ynyslas, Ceredigion and Black Stork on the Alaw Estuary, Anglesey. In England long-staying rarities still in residence included the Glossy Ibis at Marshside, Merseyside and Ferruginous Duck at Chew Valley Lake, Somerset.
