	A Great White Egret was a new discovery at Walberswick, Suffolk whilst the long-staying individual showed again at Leighton Moss, Lancashire. The Lesser Scaup remained at Rutland Water, Leicestershire as did the Wilson's Phalarope at Belfast Lough, County Down and a Citrine Wagtail on Tresco, Isles of Scilly. However, the main news today was late news. A Madeiran Petrel watched for 45 minutes feeding off Pendeen Watch, Cornwall yesterday evening follows hot on the heels of the individual photographed from a pelagic off the Isles of Scilly on 28th July this year. Nearby on Sunday the Black Stork was again seen in flight; this time over Porthcurno.
