Saturday 26th November 2011
	Highlight of the day was the Desert Wheatear in Shropshire. Found yesterday on Titterstone Clee Hill, but reported as a possible Pied Wheatear, the identification was quickly sorted out  early morning and the bird remained present all day. A Glossy Ibis at Minsmere RSPB, Suffolk was the only other new rarity. The Greater Yellowlegs remained in Northumberland, as did the Bufflehead in Cornwall, Sharp-tailed Sandpiper, two Long-billed Dowitchers and Spotted Sandpiper in Somerset, Forster's Tern in County Galway, Little Bunting in Sussex, Hume's Yellow-browed Warbler in Dorset, Desert Wheatear in Yorkshire, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Cleveland, Blue-winged Teal in County Dublin and Red-breasted Goose in Devon.
