  Another Isabelline Shrike was found today, this time in Kent at Sandwich Bay, with the other two remaining at Warham, Norfolk and Kilnsea, Yorkshire. Also at Kilnsea a Pallid Swift was present briefly, whilst a Red-throated Pipit was found at Norby, Shetland.

Lingering rarities still present today included the Steppe Grey Shrike and Olive-backed Pipit in Norfolk, Red-flanked Bluetail in Shetland, Booted Warbler and Siberian Stonechat in Lothian, Olive-backed Pipit in Northumberland and Subalpine Warbler in Cornwall.

There was no sign of the Siberian Thrush in Shetland.
