	An Eastern Bonelli's Warbler was still present at the Calf of Man on the Isle of Man this morning, having been trapped and ringed there yesterday. New discoveries today included two Whiskered Terns at Long Eaton GPs, Derbyshire before moving to Attenborough NR, Nottinghamshire, a Pallid Harrier over Wykeham Lakes and Long Nab, Yorkshire, a Black-winged Stilt and a Black Kite at Grove Ferry NNR, Kent, two more Black-winged Stilts at Hengistbury Head, Dorset, a Red-footed Falcon on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly and a Red-rumped Swallow over Pegwell Bay, Kent. Lingering rarities included the Western Rufous Turtle Dove in Kent, Snowy Owl and Iberian Chiffchaff in the Isles of Scilly, Black-winged Stilt in Lincolnshire, Lesser Yellowlegs in County Wexford, Red-footed Falcon in Dorset and Savi's Warbler in Suffolk. The Pomarine Skua passage continued along the south coast, with the highest counts coming from Dungeness (119), Splash Point (76) and Birling Gap (62).
