Sunday 25th November 2007  
  A good day in Ireland today, with another Buff-bellied Pipit in County Cork at Youghal and a female Lesser Scaup in County Down, near Clea Lake. Yesterday, there was a Ferruginous Duck in County Down and a Great White Egret in County Louth.

An immature White-tailed Eagle was seen on the Hanpshire/Wiltshire border, 4 miles west of Andover. Yet more Cattle Egrets arrived, with another bird joining the group of five already in Dorset north of Weymouth, and another bird at Kilnsea briefly, which was a first for the Spurn area. Another adult Bonaparte's Gull was found in Aberdeenshire, off Peterhead. The King Eider was also still in Aberdeenshire, and another adult Bonaparte's Gull remained in Angus, near the Lesser Yellowlegs at Montrose Basin.

The Desert Wheatear remained in Norfolk all day, and proved to be confiding, as this species often is, showing down to just a few inches.

In Devon, the Long-billed Dowitcher reappeared at Bowling Green Marsh, two Penduline Tits were seen again at Dingle Marshes, Suffolk and Great White Egrets remained in their regular locations in Hampshire and Lancashire.
