	A Little Bittern arrived on St Mary's (Isles of Scilly) and in Shropshire the Iberian Chiffchaff returned to Donnington Wood, where it previously resided from 5th April-2nd May 2016. Lingering rarities included Pied-billed Grebe (Argyll), Iberian Chiffchaff (Kent), Ferruginous Duck (Northumberland), Killdeer (Shetland), White-billed Diver (Orkney), Lesser Yellowlegs (Dorset) and Long-billed Dowitcher (Co Wexford). The best of the rest included Purple Heron (Isles of Scilly), Woodchat Shrike (Cornwall) and three Yellow-browed Warblers.
