  In Cornwall, both the Great Spotted Cuckoo and the Gyr were present, although only the cuckoo was available to the masses. The six Cattle Egrets were also present in the county, with others in Dorset, Pembrokeshire, Cheshire and Warwickshire.

The wintering King Eider was seen again at Earlsferry, Fife, the Ferruginous Duck was at Trimley, Suffolk and the Lesser Scaup was still at Holme Pierrepont, Nottinghamshire. Great White Egrets were present in Lincolnshire and Clyde.
