Sunday 2nd December 2007  
  Much the same as yesterday, as nearly all the lingering rarities continued to perform well. Both Desert Wheatears showed very well, despite the dismal weather, and the White-tailed Eagle in Hampshire was seen this morning, but no reports were received since.

A Cattle Egret was mobile around Pennington Flash Country Park, Greater Manchester, with another relocating to Drift Reservoir, Cornwall. The Long-billed Dowitcher was seen again at Bowling Green Marsh, Devon, the Lesser Yellowlegs and Bonaparte's Gull both remained in Angus, with another in Aberdeenshire. Nearby, the pair of King Eider were seen off Girdle Ness.

Barrow's Goldeneye, American Buff-bellied Pipit and Forster's Tern were all still in Ireland.
