  A Penduline Tit was discovered at Dungeness RSPB (Kent) this morning.

Lingering rarities included Ferruginous Ducks in Suffolk and Norfolk, Coues's Arctic Redpoll in Bedfordshire, Long-billed Dowitcher in Dorset and Lesser Scaup in Gloucestershire.

Possibles and probables included an unringed Baltic Gull in Suffolk, second-winter American Herring Gull and Tundra Peregrine in Cornwall and a Gyr on Isles of Scilly.

The Rose-coloured Starling lingered in Cornwall, the White-tailed Eagle was still in Hampshire and Cattle Egrets  were in Devon and Somerset.
