  The first-winter drake King Eider remained off Flamborough Head, East Yorkshire today, with the second-winter drake again at Earlsferry, Fife. Other rare wildfowl included the Lesser Scaup in Nottinghamshire and Ferruginous Duck in Essex, whilst, in Cornwall, the Snowy Owl was seen on Amalveor Downs.

Single Cattle Egrets were in Norfolk, Pembrokeshire, Wiltshire, Isles of Scilly and Isle of Man and two were in Devon. Two Great White Egrets were still in Cambridgeshire, with another still in Somerset.
