A male Sardinian Warbler was trapped and ringed at Mire Loch, St Abb's Head in Borders early morning, but wasn't seen after it was released.

The breeding Little Bitterns in Somerset are showing a little more regularly as they are presumably now feeding young. Lingering rarities included the Bonaparte's Gull in Kent, King Eider in Aberdeenshire and Glossy Ibis in Pembrokeshire.

Scarcity highlights included the Melodious Warbler in Nottinghamshire, a Short-toed Lark on Isles of Scilly, Golden Orioles in Lincolnshire and Orkney, Common Rosefinches in Perth & Kinross and Anglesey, Ring-necked Ducks in Co Armagh and North Yorshire, Surf Scoters in Aberdeenshire and North Yorkshire, Purple Heron in East Yorkshire, Great Shearwater off Co Galway and Cory's Shearwater off Cornwall.
