  Two more Black Kites were found today, both brief fly-overs, in Kent, over Sandwich Bay, and in East Yorkshire, over Hornsea Mere. Two White-billed Divers were seen on the Western Isles, off Port Nis, Lewis, with another on Shetland off Wester Quarff.

King Eiders were seen in Ayrshire, Aberdeenshire, and the Devon bird reappeared off Northam Burrows Country Park. Also in Devon, the adult male Little Crake continued to show very well at Exminster Marshes RSPB. The Black Duck was still in Pembrokeshire at Marloes Mere, but there was no sign today of the Dark-eyed Junco in Kent.
