	A juvenile Pallid Harrier which flew through Belvide Reservoir, Staffordshire was a first for the county. The roaming Black-winged Stilt (from Oxfordshire and Leicestershire) was relocated again today, this time at Willow Tree Fen NR, Lincolnshire, where it remained all day. Lingering rarities included the Greater Yellowlegs and King Eider in Aberdeenshire, Black-winged Stilt in Dorset, two Long-billed Dowitchers and Spotted Sandpiper in Somerset, Little Bunting in Devon, single Blue-winged Teals in Clyde and Cornwall, Lesser Scaup in Glamorgan and Ferruginous Duck in Wiltshire.
