	An Eastern Olivaceous Warbler was discovered today at Bigton, Shetland, with an Arctic Warbler nearby at Lerwick. A Great Snipe was present on Foula for its second day, and an American Golden Plover was at Pool of Virkie. Further south, the first King Eider for Suffolk was on the sea off Dunwich late afternoon, after drifting south from Kessingland to Minsmere then north again. A Red-footed Falcon flew over Stoke Newington, London late afternoon, following several sightings of a possible south along the Suffolk coast during the morning, and another was at Belton, Norfolk mid morning. A Black Kite was in Hampshire, a Red-rumped Swallow was in Sussex, a Citrine Wagtail was on the Isles of Scilly and two Ferruginous Ducks were at Chew Valley Lake, Somerset. In Ireland, the identity of the House Crow at Cobh, County Cork was confirmed, and it was present for at least its eighth day. A Citrine Wagtail was at Coonagh, County Limerick, single Blue-winged Teals were at Shannon, County Clare and Tacumshin, County Wexford, with a Baird's Sandpiper also at the latter site and two Glossy Ibises nearby at Lady's Island Lake. Lingering rarity highlights included Lesser Grey Shrike and Wilson's Phalarope on the Isles of Scilly, Arctic Warbler in Norfolk, Western Bonelli's Warbler in Yorkshire, Broad-billed Sandpiper in Cleveland, twenty Glossy Ibises in Devon, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Lothian and Whiskered Tern in Leicestershire.
