  Both the Crested Lark and Collared Flycatcher remained in Kent and Dorset respectively, but the Eastern Bonelli's Warbler had, unfortunately, departed from the latter. In Essex, the Savi's Warbler continued to sing in the Lee Valley Park, and the Forster's Tern was seen again briefly at Tacumshin, County Wexford.

In Lancashire, the Pallid Swift was seen again in the Crosby area early morning at least, and three Red-rumped Swallows were seen, with one in Northumberland and two together in Cleveland.

The adult White-billed Diver showed well off Burghead, Moray, the Lesser Scaup was in Glamorgan and the Ferruginous Duck was still at Wimbleball Lake, Somerset.
