Other lingering rarities included the Great Reed Warbler on the Isles of Scilly, Black Duck in Pembrokeshire, Franklin's Gull and Bonaparte's Gull both in Somerset, Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Cornwall, Glossy Ibis in Lancashire, Lesser Scaups in both Dumfries and Galloway and Leicestershire, Ross's Geese in Lancashire and Norfolk and single Great White Egrets in Norfolk, Somerset and the Western Isles.

Cattle Egret reports comprised ten in Cornwall, five in Cork and two in Hampshire with singles in Cambridgeshire, Ceredigion, Devon and Gloucestershire.
