	A Spotted Sandpiper showed well on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly; it has been present for a week but not identified for certain until yesterday. In Ireland the American Black Tern remained in County Galway as did the Citrine Wagtail in County Kerry and Spotted Sandpiper in County Cork. In England the Blue-winged Teal lingered in Cleveland as did the Glossy Ibis in Merseyside, White-winged Black Tern in Kent, Great White Egret in Lancashire and Ferruginous Duck in Somerset. Two Ortolan Buntings were seen in Dorset making a total of six present in that county this week. Today, in Cornwall an Ortolan Bunting and two Tawny Pipits were seen near Land's End.
