Thursday 3rd July 2008  
  Unfortunately the Little Swift failed to reappear in South Yorkshire but lingering rarities elsewhere comprised the White-billed Diver on the Orkney Isles, Lesser Yellowlegs in Norfolk, Forster's Tern in County Wexford and Hooded Merganser in Dorset.

Single Rose-coloured Starlings in Moray and the Orkney Isles headlined the scarcities whilst a Marsh Warbler was a new arrival on the Shetland Isles.

Seawatching produced Cory's Shearwater in Cornwall, County Durham and County Cork (3) whilst 40 Balearic Shearwaters passed Portland Bill, Dorset.
