Wednesday 18th June 2008
	The highlight of the day was the continued presence of both the singing male River Warbler at Evie, Orkney Isles and the family party of three Black-winged Stilts at Neumann's Flash, Cheshire. A Black Kite was seen briefly at Lanhgam, Norfolk. Notable scarcities included singles Rose-coloured Starlings in both Clyde and the Orkney Isles, Night Heron in Cambridgeshire, Red-backed Shrike in Norfolk and a singing male Corncrake in Berkshire. Migrant Crossbills continued to be noted with 77 reported from seven counties.
