Wednesday 2nd July 2014  
  The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Blue-winged Teal in Nottinghamshire at Lound, although it could not be relocated later in the day.

Lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Short-toed Eagle in Hampshire, Bridled Tern in Northumberland, Ross's Gull in Devon and Lesser Scaup in Somerset.

Scarcities included Rose-coloured Starling (Lancashire), Marsh Warbler (Shetland Isles), Grey Phalarope (Orkney Isles), Temminck's Stint (Northumberland), Corncrake (East Yorkshire) and five Glossy Ibises.
