  Another great day for rare waders was headlined by the continued presence of the Great Knot at Breydon Water (Norfolk). Elsewhere in Norfolk a Black-winged Pratincole arrived at Cley NWT (where a Pectoral Sandpiper also remained), and in neighbouring Suffolk a Collared Pratincole was at Minsmere RSPB. In Lincolnshire the Lesser Yellowlegs lingered at Frampton Marsh RSPB and in West Sussex the pair of Black-winged Stilts were still at Medmerry.

In Co Cork the Laughing Gull remained at Ballycotton, and the best of the rest included Red-backed Shrikes in Norfolk and Surrey and five Glossy Ibises.
