	Both the Rose-breasted Grosbeak and the American Buff-bellied Pipit remained in-situ today, on the Isles of Scilly and in Berkshire respectively. Other lingering rarities included the Laughing Gull in Aberdeenshire, Lesser Scaup in Somerset and Glossy Ibis in Pembrokeshire. Scarcity highlights included a Rose-coloured Starling, two Ring-necked Ducks, two Green-winged Teals, an Iceland Gull, a Glaucous Gull and four Ring-billed Gulls.
