Wednesday 26th December 2007  
  Boxing Day produced several lingering rarities, including the Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Cornwall, Lesser Scaup in Warwickshire, Desert Wheatear in North Yorkshire, Wilson's Snipe on Isles of Scilly, Great White Egrets in Cambridgeshire and Hampshire, Red-breasted Geese in West Sussex and Dumfries and Galloway, Spotted Sandpipers in Forth and Glamorgan and a couple of King Eiders in Aberdeenshire.

Cattle Egrets were still abundant - although the majority remained in Cornwall, singles arrived in St Neots, Cambridgeshire and East Lavant, West Sussex and the Dumfries and Galloway individual remained at Gatehouse of Fleet.
