  The highlight of the day was the continued presence of the Black Duck in Conwy at Glan Conwy, although it proved to be most elusive today. Elsewhere, the two Glossy Ibises remained in Somerset whilst a scattering of scarcities comprised four each of Snow Goose and Great Grey Shrike, three each of Hoopoe, Surf Scoter and Iceland Gull, two each of Serin, Lapland Bunting (Western Isles), Glaucous Gull, Waxwing (Bedfordshire) and Great White Egret and single Woodchat Shrike, Cattle Egret and Dotterel (all in Cornwall), Wryneck (Kent), Ring-billed Gull (County Cork) and Green-winged Teal (Pembrokeshire).
