	The highlight of the day was confirmation of the identification of a Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler at Holme Dunes, Norfolk, having first been noted there yesterday. Lingering rarities confirmed as still present today comprised the Green Heron in Cornwall, Northern Harrier in County Wexford, Forster's Tern in County Galway, Lesser Yellowlegs in Leicestershire, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, Red-breasted Goose in Merseyside, Ferruginous Duck in Somerset and Glossy Ibises in Devon (3), County Wexford and Wiltshire. Scarcities included Pallas's Warbler (Kent), Common Rosefinch and Surf Scoter (Pembrokeshire), Ring-billed Gull (Essex) and Great Grey Shrike (Dorset), two each of Cattle Egret and Green-winged Teal, three Black Brants, four each of both Rough-legged Buzzard and Yellow-browed Warbler and five Great White Egrets. Waxwings were reported from 35 counties.
