Saturday 28th May 2016  
  A Black-browed Albatross spent a few hours on Fair Isle, Shetland this morning, mostly in flight around the east side of the island, and a female Black-eared Wheatear was seen at Happisburgh, Norfolk very briefly. The Black-billed Cuckoo remained at Bayhead, Western Isles, the Lammergeier was reported again from Dartmoor, Devon (having been seen in Somerset mid afternoon yesterday) and the Dalmatian Pelican spent much of the day at Drift Reservoir, Cornwall.

Other new discoveries today included a Snowy Owl in County Clare, Gull-billed Tern in Lothian, Forster's Tern in County Galway, two Greenish Warblers in Gwynedd, two Bee-eaters in both Kent and Cornwall and White-billed Diver in Shetland.

Other lingering rarities included the Great Spotted Cuckoo in Dorset, Savi's Warbler in Yorkshire, Great Reed Warbler in Cambridgeshire, Subalpine warbler in Fife, single Red-footed Falcons in Essex and Wiltshire, two Black-winged Stilts in Essex and Bonaparte's Gull in Northumberland.
