  Long-staying rarities provided the highlights today with the Pacific Diver at Marazion Cornwall, White-tailed Eagle at Cholderton Hampshire and Desert Wheatears at both Horsey Norfolk and Cromer Point North Yorkshire most notable amongst them.

Otherwise, Cattle Egrets remained in Dorset (5) and Cornwall (4), Great White Egrets in County Londonderry, Hampshire and Kent, Glossy Ibis in Lancashire, Lesser Scaup on the Shetland Isles and Long-billed Dowitchers in both Devon and County Londonderry. 

The Falcated Duck showed again at Cop Mere, Staffordshire but , disappointingly, it bears a yellow ring and is an escape.
