	A Red-rumped Swallow at Eyemouth, Borders was the only new rarity discovered today. A Great White Egret in Moray was reported for the first time, despite being present for six days, and a third Penduline Tit was seen at Dungeness RSPB, after first being seen on Monday. Lingering rarities included the Brown Shrike in Surrey, Spotted Sandpiper in Essex, Wilson's Phalarope in Lothian, King Eider in Moray, two Glossy Ibises in Kent, single Lesser Yellowlegs' in County Waterford and Lothian and a Great White Egret in Kent.
