Monday 7th July 2008
	The highlight of the day was the continued presence of the Terek Sandpiper in Cleveland. Elsewhere, the Lesser Yellowlegs remained in Norfolk, as did both the White-billed Diver and Rose-coloured Starling on the Orkney Isles, Common Rosefinch in Forth and the Hooded Merganser in Dorset. From a national perspective Balearic Shearwaters, Spoonbills and Roseate Terns continue to feature prominently with locally significant numbers of Storm Petrel, Quail, Black-necked Grebe, Black-tailed Godwit and Crossbill also being noted.
