Wednesday 26th July 2017
	Highlight of the day was the discovery of a Gull-billed Tern at Martin Mere WWT (Lancashire), whilst Two-barred Crossbills in Shetland (2) and Fife, King Eider in Ceredigion, Black-winged Stilt familes in Kent and Cambridgeshire, Forster's Tern in Co Louth, Little Bittern in Somerset, Bonaparte's Gull in Kent and Bee-eaters in Nottinghamshire all lingered. The best of the rest included American Night Heron (Shropshire), Red-backed Shrike (North Yorkshire), White-winged Black Tern (East Yorkshire) and Pectoral Sandpipers in Gloucestershire and Lincolnshire.
