  Another Grey-cheeked Thrush was found in Shetland today, in a garden in Rerwick. This is the third record for the county this autumn, out of a total of five in Britain. Also in Shetland a new Red-flanked Bluetail was at Voe, with the lingering individual still at Geosetter. Further south, a Siberian Stonechat was found at Newbiggin, Northumberland.

Lingering rarities included obliging Desert Wheatears at Reculver, Kent, Lowestoft, Suffolk and Gorleston, Norfolk and a less obliging American Coot in County Kerry, as well as the Siberian Stonechat on the Isle of Wight, Citrine Wagtail in Yorkshire, single Lesser Yellowlegs' in Cornwall and County Dublin, Franklin's Gull in Hampshire, King Eider in Moray and Richardson's Cackling Goose in County Sligo.
