Friday 10th July 2009  
  An adult White-winged Black Tern was found at Fen Drayton Lakes in Cambridgeshire and proved to be a popular attraction during the afternoon. A Great White Egret was reported at Pegwell Bay in Kent and, in Ireland, there was an American Golden Plover near Killadoon in County Mayo.

The Stilt Sandpiper and Pectoral Sandpiper both remained at Loch of Strathbeg RSPB reserve in Aberdeenshire and, in Highland, the River Warbler continued to hold territory near Applecross. The Little Bittern was seen again briefly in Somerset and the Great White Egret remained on Mainland Orkney. A Serin flew over Durlston in Dorset and the Buff-breasted Sandpiper was still to be found at Cley, along with a brief Temmink's Stint and up to nine Spoonbills. In Lincolnshire the Pectoral Sandpiper was seen again at Alkborough Flats.
