  The highlight of the day was the discovery of a Blyth's Pipit at Pugneys Country Park (West Yorkshire). In Dorset a Lesser Yellowlegs was at Brownsea Island NT whilst the Penduline Tits (Devon), Eastern Black Redstart (Isles of Scilly), Ferruginous Duck (Hampshire) and Dusky Warbler (Cornwall) all lingered and the male Desert Wheatear was reportedly still present at Winterton (Norfolk).

The best of the rest included Barred Warbler (Dorset), Glossy Ibis (Kent), Lesser Snow Goose (Norfolk), Cattle Egret (Cheshire), two American Wigeons (Cornwall), four Ring-necked Ducks and five Richard's Pipits.
