Sunday 8th June 2008
	New arrivals today included a very brief Rustic Bunting at Spurn, Yorkshire, a flyover Black Stork at North Warren RSPB, Suffolk, an Alpine Swift at Pegwell Bay, Kent and a Bee-eater over Dunwich Heath NT, Suffolk. A Great Reed Warbler was heard singing at Lakenheath Fen RSPB, also Suffolk, and an adult Whiskered Tern spent the afternoon in Cambridgeshire. The male Citril Finch remained on Fair Isle, Shetland, although it was only seen twice, being very mobile around the island. In Suffolk, the male Thrush Nightingale continued to sing at Dunwich Heath NT car park, and occasionally showed very well. The Terek Sandpiper returned to The Wicks, East Sussex and other lingering rarities included Bee-eater in Norfolk, Whiskered Tern in Aberdeenshire, Forster's Tern in County Wexford, Lesser Yellowlegs in County Derry, and four Red-footed Falcons, three of which were in Kent.
