	Kent once again stole the limelight today, with Dungeness RSPB retaining the White-tailed Plover, Purple Heron and Great White Egret, whilst the male Iberian Chiffchaff was heard again at Walderslade. Other lingering rarities included King Eider in Yorkshire, Little Bittern in Somerset and Laughing Gull in County Antrim. Probable Yelkouan Shearwaters were seen off Sennen Cove and Porthgwarra, Cornwall, and a possible Baltic Gull was at Blythburgh, Suffolk. A belated report concerned a probable Sooty Tern yesterday on Westray, Orkney. Scarcity highlights included Wryneck, Kentish Plover, Buff-breasted Sandpiper and Pectoral Sandpiper all in Norfolk.
