Thursday 23rd April 2009  
  A quiet day for rarities, with the only new bird being a Ferruginous Duck at Stewartby Lake, Bedfordshire. Two new Cattle Egrets were seen in Lancashire, which were present for their second day. Other Cattle Egrets were in Cornwall and Devon.

On Shetland, the drake Wood Duck returned to the Loch of Brow, with the male Subalpine Warbler still nearby at Scatness. Further south, the Lesser Scaup was still in Glamorgan, Great White Egret in Somerset and Hooded Merganser in Dorset.
