Thursday 23rd July 2009  
  An adult Great Spotted Cuckoo was found at Salthouse, Norfolk, late afternoon, and was present until 8.55pm at least. It was typically mobile and elusive, and ranged over a very wide area on the north and east side of the village.

At opposite ends of the country a male Two-barred Crossbill was on Fair Isle, Shetland, and five Wilson's Petrels were seen from a pelagic near the Isles of Scilly. Lingering rarities included the Collared Pratincole in Yorkshire, American Golden Plover in Norfolk, Lesser Yellowlegs in Lothian, Franklin's Gull on Orkney and Great White Egret in Somerset.
