  A probable American Bittern was seen briefly this evening at Marton Mere LNR, Lancashire as it flew to roost with a Bittern. The last twitchable American Bittern was at the same site back in 1991, so, if confirmed and lingers, it would prove very popular.

A white morph Gyr was on Islay, Argyll, for at least its second day, with other rarities confirmed as present today including Black-throated Thrush in Yorkshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Anglesey, American Herring Gull and Forster's Tern in County Galway, Black Kite in Powys, King Eider in Moray, Little Bunting in Highland and three Glossy Ibises in Somerset.
