Wednesday 27th January 2010  
  The only new rarity today was a belated report of a Penduline Tit seen on Monday at Grove Ferry in east Kent. Otherwise, today was all about 'long staying' rarities: The female Black-throated Thrush remained near Whitby in North Yorkshire, whilst the Bonaparte's Gull was seen again at Traeth Lligwy in Anglesey and elsewhere in Wales, the Black Kite was still at Gigrin in Powys. In Cornwall the Lesser Scaup remained on Dozmary Pool whilst the Spotted Sandpiper could still be found on the Exe Estuary in Devon and, at the other end of the country, the Little Bunting was still visiting gardens at Dunnet in Highland, the King Eider was still at Burghead in Moray and the Black-bellied Dipper was still on Mainland Shetland.
