  The annual gathering of White-billed Divers off Portsoy, Aberdeenshire continues, with at least seven birds offshore today, whilst other singletons continued to linger off Burghead (Moray), Herston (Orkney) and Port Skigersta (Western Isles).

Other lingering rarities included the Iberian Chiffchaff in Shropshire, both American Herring Gulls in Cornwall, Long-billed Dowitcher in Northumberland, single King Eiders in Fife and Highland and Lesser Scaup in Glamorgan.
