  The higlight of the day was the relocation of the flock of 10 Bee-eaters in Suffolk at Theberton, with another three Bee-eaters briefly near Brixham, Devon.

Otherwise, lingering rarities confirmed as still present were the Hudsonian Whimbrel in East Sussex, Greater Yellowlegs in Hampshire, Little Bittern in South Yorkshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Kent, and White-rumped Sandpiper in East Yorkshire.

Scarcities included Common Rosefinch (Dorset), White-winged Black Tern (Lincolnshire), Melodious Warbler (West Midlands), Temminck's Stint (Perth and Kinross), American Wigeon (South Yorkshire) and Ring-billed Gull (Cornwall).
