	In Highland, a grey morph Gyr Falcon was seen over the moor near Dalwhinnie this afternoon. In East Anglia, at least three Coues's Arctic Redpolls were reported from Martham Ferry, Norfolk, and a Ferruginous Duck was seen at Needham Market, Suffolk, although the identity of the latter was questioned this afternoon, with the bird possibly being a hybrid. Also in Norfolk, both the Lesser White-fronted Goose and the Northern Harrier remained in-situ, with another of the latter still in County Wexford, together with another Ferruginous Duck at the same site. Five Northern Long-tailed Tits were once again present in Dymchurch, Kent, with other lingering rarities including Glossy Ibis in Kent, Forster's Tern in County Galway, Pacific Diver in Cornwall, Lesser Scaup in Gloucestershire and three Coues's Arctic Redpolls in County Durham.
