	At least 35 Cattle Egrets remain across Great Britain today, with birds as far east as Cambridgeshire, and north to Dumfries and Galloway. The majority are in Cornwall, with a Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in the same county still. Nearby, the Long-billed Dowitcher is still in Devon at Bowling Green Marsh, and the Red-breasted Goose remains at West Wittering, Sussex. There is a first winter drake King Eider at Leven, Fife, and the Spotted Sandpiper was seen again in Forth at Kinneil Lagoon. Further south, the Desert Wheatear lingers in North Yorkshire, Lesser Scaup in Warwickshire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Suffolk and Great White Egret in Cambridgeshire. Best of the rest includes a Pallas's Warbler still in Suffolk, whilst in Ireland the Black Duck in County Donegal relocated to Blanket Nook.
