	In Ireland the Baikal Teal remained at Tacumshin (Co Wexford), where a Glossy Ibis, Long-billed Dowitcher and Green-winged Teal also lingered. In Co Donegal the American Eider was again off Fanad Head Elsewhere rarities included Black Kite (Powys), Black Duck (Cornwall), Lesser Scaups (Clyde, Cornwall and Glamorgan), Red-breasted Goose (Devon) and Little Buntings (Highland and Cornwall). On Isles of Scilly a Hoopoe arrived on St Mary's (following a belated report of a Hoopoe in Cornwall on Sunday), the American Wigeon lingered in Dumfries & Galloway and Ring-necked Ducks were logged in Carmarthenshire and Orkney. In Cumbria the Rose-coloured Starling was still in a Kendal garden.
