  A Lesser Grey Shrike on Mainland Shetland was today's best new discovery and Pacific Golden Plover in Norfolk, Lesser Yellowlegs in Lothian and East Yorkshire and Ferruginous Duck in Fife all lingered.

A possible Black-browed Albatross and a possible Scopoli's Shearwaters were both seen off the Isle of Scilly, where two Wilson's Petrels were also logged from a pelagic. Great White Egrets remained in Suffolk and Somerset, a Pectoral Sandpiper visited Manby, Lincolnshire and in East Yorkshire a Cory's Shearwater was tracked north past Spurn and Grimston.
