Wednesday 25th June 2008  
  New arrivals today include an adult American Golden Plover on Anglesey, on the Alaw Estuary, two Black Kites in Yorkshire, at Grimston and Knaresborough, and a Cattle Egret at Cley NWT, Norfolk. The adult Lesser Yellowlegs remained at the same site, but the Lesser Grey Shrike nearby appears to have departed.

A Bee-eater was seen once again in the Coventry area of Warwickshire, briefly over Radford, the first-summer drake Hooded Merganser remained in Weymouth, Dorset, and a probable Black-browed Albatross was seen on the Pembrokeshire coast.

Scarcities included Red-backed Shrike in Norfolk, Common Rosefinch in Forth, Rose-coloured Starling in Orkney and an inland Roseate Tern at Broom Gravel-pits, Bedfordshire, with several other individuals at the coast.
