  New arrivals today included a male Western Subalpine Warbler on Ramsey Island, Pembrokeshire, a Black Kite over Crampmoor, Hampshire, and at least one Bee-eater in Dorset, on Portland at 9.23am and at Durlston Country Park at 4.10pm. Long staying rarities included the male Little Bittern and drake Ferruginous Duck in Somerset.

Single male Marsh Warblers were present in Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire, Gwynedd and on Orkney, and a Pectoral Sandpiper was at Greatham Creek, Cleveland this evening. The rather unseasonal summer plumaged Snow Bunting reappeared at Cley, Norfolk.
