Wednesday 6th February 2008  
  The second winter Glossy Ibis in Lincolnshire remained all day, and was confirmed as having been ringed as a chick at Coto Donana, Spain in June 2006. Nearby, the Cattle Egret remained at Legbourne, with a further 38 reported elsewhere in the country. The White-crowned Sparrow was still at Cley, Norfolk, and the Pacific Diver was still at Llys-y-Fran Reservoir, Pembrokeshire.

Other lingering rarities included King Eider in Aberdeenshire, Lesser Yellowlegs in Angus and Suffolk, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Cornwall, Ferruginous Duck in Derbyshire, Lesser Scaups in Warwickshire and Perth and Kinross and Spotted Sandpiper in Forth. The Red-breasted Goose was seen again at Caerlaverock WWT, with the other remaining in West Sussex and Hampshire.
