	The adult Pacific Diver remained off the Isles of Scilly, although it is once again becoming distant. On Orkney, a female Snowy Owl was seen this afternoon on Shapinsay, and has probably been around the islands for several weeks. The Cornish bird remained in-situ, on Amalveor Downs. Lingering rarities include the Red-breasted Goose in West Sussex, the Lesser Scaup in Perth and Kinross, Cackling Canada Goose in Dumfries and Galloway and Cattle Egrets were in Norfolk, Devon (4), County Cork (6), on the Isle of Man and on the Isles of Scilly.
