Saturday 20th July 2013
	An arrival of at least seven Two-barred Crossbills occurred today, with at least four in Norfolk (two at Holme and singles at Cley and Salthouse), two in Suffolk (on Havergate Island) and one in Yorkshire (at Spurn Point). With a significant Scandinavian movement in progress, more are expected to arrive in the next few days. Other new discoveries today included a Bee-eater over Aston Pigott, Shropshire, and a Bonaparte's Gull at Rye Harbour NR, Sussex. Lingering rarities included the Rock Thrush in Aberdeenshire, Bridled Tern in Northumberland, Gull-billed Tern in County Wexford, two Little Bitterns in Somerset, Lesser Yellowlegs in Carmarthenshire, White-rumped Sandpiper in Dorset and single Bonaparte's Gulls in Kent and Lancashire.
