Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Baikal Teal in Merseyside, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Lesser Yellowlegs in Hampshire, Blue-winged Teal in the Orknry Isles, Lesser Scaup in Glamorgan, Black Kite in Kent, Glossy Ibis in Gloucestershire, with Two-barred Crossbills in Kent, Norfolk, Shropshire (2) and South Yorkshire (7).
