  In Norfolk, a female Red-footed Falcon showed briefly at Hickling Broad NWT early afternoon, where the Stilt Sandpiper was also seen again, but early morning only.

Further north the Swinhoe's Petrel again came in to the Storm Petrel tape on Fair Isle, Shetland, and the Bridled Tern arrived back on the Farne Islands, Northumberland. The other lingering rarities seen today were the Lesser Yellowlegs in Lincolnshire, Spotted Sandpiper in Clyde and two Black-winged Stilts in Sussex.

There were claims of the Short-toed Eagle in both Hampshire and East Sussex, both this morning.
