	A Bobolink on Foula, Shetland and White's Thrush on Inishbofin, Co Galway were today's two standout finds. A Booted Warbler on Lundy, Devon, was equally unavailable to the masses, but mainland discoveries included a Radde's Warbler on Great Ormes Head, Conwy and a Glossy Ibis on Ouse Washes, Cambridgeshire. Other highlights consisted of the Aquatic Warbler at Slapton Ley, Devon (the same bird trapped and ringed at the site on 20th September), Stilt Sandpiper and Rustic Bunting in Cumbria, Lesser Grey Shrike and Greenish Warbler in Norfolk, Radde's Warblers in Suffolk and Norfolk, Red-footed Falcon in East Yorkshire and Hudsonian Whimbrel on Isles of Scilly. The most notable scarcities were a Woodchat Shrike and Richard's Pipit in Norfolk, Hoopoe on Isle of Man, Ortolan Bunting on Bardsey Island and a couple of Little Buntings together on Isles of Scilly.
