	The Short-toed Eagle reappeared in Hampshire today, being seen for around an hour this morning in a tree at Bishop's Dyke, New Forest, before it flew east. A very pale Common Buzzard present mid morning resulted in some brief confusion, but the eagle wasn't seen again all day. A Savi's Warbler sang and showed on and off all day at Walberswick, Suffolk, a singing Greenish Warbler and at least two Two-barred Crossbills were beside the Hedderwick Burn at Tyninghame Bay, Lothian, a Great Reed Warbler sang in the Swinister Burn, Shetland, a Tawny Pipit was at Saltfleet, Lincolnshire briefly and three Bee-eaters flew over Niton, Isle of Wight. Long staying rarities once again included the Spectacled Warbler in Norfolk, Ross's Gull and Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Savi's Warbler in Gwent, Black-winged Stilts in Kent (two) and Sussex (three), single King Eiders in Lothian and Aberdeenshire and the Lesser Scaup in Cheshire.
