  A Red-breasted Goose arrived on Orkney, whilst White-billed Diver in Shetland and Ferruginous Duck in Hampshire were both presumably returning birds.

Lingering rarities included Desert Wheatear in Norfolk, Bonaparte's Gull in Devon, Lesser Yellowlegs in Cornwall, Grey-cheeked Thrush and Red-flanked Bluetail in Shetland, Franklin's Gull in Hampshire and American Coot in Co Kerry.

The best of the rest included Yellow-browed Warbler (Suffolk), Ring-necked Duck (Northamptonshire), at least two Richard's Pipits, two American Wigeons, two Surf Scoters and at up to 15 Rough-legged Buzzards.
