Thursday 24th March 2011
	The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Short-toed Treecreeper at Landguard, Suffolk. Trapped early in the morning the bird remained late into the afternoon, and showed well at times Elsewhere, rarities comprised the Stejneger's Scoter still in County Kerry, Pied-billed Grebe in Argyll, House Crow in County Cork, two Penduline Tits in Suffolk, Blue-winged Teal in Carmarthenshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Glamorgan, Northern Long-tailed Tit in County Durham and singe Lesser Scaups in Dumfries and Galloway, Gloucestershire and Merseyside. The best of the rest included a Ring-necked Duck discovered in Merseyside, a Hoopoe still in Devon, and the White-tailed Eagle being seen again in Hampshire.
