	A rather quiet day, with just two new rarities. A Red-throated Pipit was on Tresco, Isles of Scilly, with the Spotted Sandpiper remaining on St.Mary's, and a new Great White Egret was found at Maldon, Essex, just 1.5miles from the long staying Spotted Crake at Dump Pool. An Aquatic Warbler remained for its second day in Gwent, at Uskmouth NR, and the Grey Phalarope and Red-necked Phalarope were both still in Surrey and Lincolnshire respectively. The Black Kite was relocated in County Wexford, being seen over the South Slobs early morning, although there was no sign of yesterdays Richardson's Canada Goose at Belfast Lough RSPB, County Down, but an Azorean Yellow-legged Gull was present there. Two juvenile Buff-breasted Sandpipers were found on South Uist, and a possible Wilson's Phalarope or Marsh Sandpiper was reported this evening at Titchwell RSPB, and will undoubtedly be looked for in the morning.
