Monday 7th July 2014
	The highlight of the day was confirmation that the Black-winged Pratincole had returned to Northumberland, where it remained at Holywell Pond until mid morning before, once again, flying off. Elsewhere, Lesser Grey Shrike, Marsh Warbler and Pectoral Sandpiper were all together on the Shetland Isles, the Night Heron showed again in Gloucestershire, a Pectoral Sandpiper lingered in Norfolk, a Serin was seen briefly in East Sussex, and Glossy Ibis remained in Cambridgeshire, Dorset, Lincolnshire and West Yorkshire.
