	Today's most exciting new discovery was a Black-throated Thrush at Adwick Washlands, South Yorkshire. News of a Lesser White-fronted Goose, which has been present on Foulness Island (Essex) with a small flock of Russian White-fronted Geese since early December 2016, was also released this evening. Lingering rarities comprised Blue Rock Thrush (Gloucestershire), Dusky Thrush (Derbyshire), Ferruginous Duck (Norfolk), Black Scoter (Northumberland), Lesser Yellowlegs (Dorset), Pacific Diver, Hudsonian Whimbrel, Eastern Black Redstart and Lesser Scaup (Cornwall), Bonaparte's Gull (Devon), Long-billed Dowitcher (Co Wexford) and Eastern Black Redstart (Cleveland).
