Thursday 17th February 2011  
  In London, the adult Slaty-backed Gull remained in-situ at Rainham Marshes RSPB from late morning onwards, whilst the Rufous Turtle Dove also remained available at Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, although it was still fairly mobile around The Leys area.

New rarities today included a Northern Harrier at Broadlough, County Wicklow, a King Eider in Bluemull Sound, Shetland and a Penduline Tit at Dungeness, Kent, with another two of the latter again at Rainham Marshes RSPB, Kent. Lingering rarities included Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset, House Crow in County Cork, Red-breasted Goose in Hampshire and single Lesser Scaups in Cornwall and Glamorgan.
