  For the second consecutive day a Rustic Bunting was the best new discovery, this time at Rye Harbour NR (East Sussex).

Lingering rarities included Green Heron in Cornwall, Lesser Yellowlegs in Leicestershire, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, and Glossy Ibis in Devon, but in Greater Manchester the Pied-billed Grebe could not be found at Hollingworth Lake.

In Ireland, the American Coot was still in Co Mayo, whilst Northern Harrier (Co Wexford), Forster's Tern (Co Galway) and Ferruginous Duck (Co Down) also lingered.

Waxwing flocks were still widespread, Pallas's Warblers were still in East Yorkshire and Dorset, a Richard's Pipit flew over in Hampshire and Yellow-browed Warblers lingered on Isles of Scilly and in Cornwall.
