  The first Lanceolated Warbler of the year was reported today, from the unlikely location of Langness, Isle of Man. A Black Kite lingered in the Marazion area of Cornwall, and another Citrine Wagtail was in County Wexford, this time a first-winter at Churchtown,

Lingering rarities included the Pallid Harrier in Cambridgeshire early morning only, King Eider in Lincolnshire, single Glossy Ibises in Kent and Somerset, American Golden Plover in the Western Isles, single Baird's Sandpipers in Cornwall, County Kerry  and Anglesey, Semipalmated Sandpiper in County Kerry and Lesser Yellowlegs in Lothian, but there was no sign of the Fan-tailed Warbler at Pegwell Bay, Kent.
