  In Fife, a Lesser Yellowlegs was found on the rising tide on the Eden Estuary at Edenside, before flying onto the saltings. A juvenile Lesser Yellowlegs was found in exactly the same place in September 2008. Other new rarities included two Cattle Egrets in Devon and the returning Great White Egret at Blashford Lakes HWT, Hampshire.

In Yorkshire, the Collared Pratincole remained for its second day at High Eske NR. Scarcities included Pectoral Sandpiper in Kent, Red-backed Shrike on Orkney, Pomarine Skua in the West Midlands and a Red-necked Phalarope on the Western Isles.
