	Find of the day was a Killdeer at Saddle Bow in Norfolk - the bird frequented a ditch for around forty minutes early afternoon before flying off. Elsewhere a drake King Eider was a superb discovery off Pett, East Sussex and in London two Penduline Tits remained at Rainham Marshes RSPB. Lingering wildfowl included the Red-breasted Goose in Hampshire, Ross's Goose in Norfolk, Ferruginous Duck in Lincolnshire, Hooded Merganser in Dorset, King Eider in Fife and Lesser Scaup in Glamorgan. At least sixteen Cattle Egrets were logged, the majority in Co Cork and in Galway the American Herring Gull was still on show.
