	An adult drake Black Scoter off Burghead (Moray) this afternoon was presumably the same individual that had lingered off Murcar Links (Aberdeenshire) from 27th June-1st July. Lingering rarities included Bonaparte's Gull in Devon and Bee-eater on Isles of Scilly, whilst in Suffolk, Minsmere RSPB hosted two Ferruginous Ducks. The best of the rest included Serin (East Sussex), White-tailed Eagle (Lincolnshire), Common Rosefinches (Highland and Shetland) and Great White Egret (Kent).
