  The male Brown-headed Cowbird remained for its second day on Fair Isle, Shetland, delighting the few that managed to charter onto the island this afternoon. Also on Shetland, two Black Ducks were on Loch of Hillwell this evening, and the Wood Duck was still on Loch of Brow.

Further south, a male Eastern Subalpine Warbler was present all day at Portland Bill, Dorset. New Red-rumped Swallows were in Northamptonshire and London, and the two were still in Norfolk, at Cley and then, later, Weybourne. A Red-footed Falcon was also in Norfolk, and a Black Kite was in Kent. The Blue-winged Teal reappeared in County Tipperary, and the Pallid Swift was still in Merseyside.

The Savi's Warbler continued to sing in Essex, and the North American peep was still in Devon.
