Saturday 24th November 2007  
  A male Desert Wheatear was located late afternoon at Horsey, Norfolk and will hopefully still be present tomorrow. An adult drake Ferruginous Dusk was present at Abberton Reservoir, Essex, but unfortunately remained in a private area all day. A Glossy Ibis was reported from Bowling Green Marsh, Devon, with the Marshside bird remaining in Merseyside.

The Cattle Egret influx continued, with five birds found together in Devon, and several still in west Cornwall. The Barrow's Goldeneye returned to Quoile Pondage, County Down.

Lingering rarities included Spotted Sandpiper in Glamorgan, Bonaparte's Gull in Angus, King Eider in Aberdeen, Red-breasted Goose in Dumfries and Galloway, Ferruginous Duck in Berkshire and Great White Egrets in Lancashire and Hampshire.

Good numbers of seabirds, especially Little Auks, continued to be seen from east and south coasts, with a few Pomarine Skuas around as well. Abberton Reservoir, Essex hosted a Grey Phalarope,  three Slavonian Grebes and a Red-necked Grebe.
