  A report of an adult Audouin's Gull on the Gannel Estuary (Cornwall) was today's most significant news, whilst a Laughing Gull was reported in Aberdeenshire. The Horned Lark (Surrey), Pacific Divers (Cornwall and Co Cork), Spotted Sandpiper (Nottinghamshire), Coues's Arctic Redpoll (Suffolk) and Long-billed Dowitcher (Kent) all lingered.

The best of the rest included Little Bunting (London), Richard's Pipit (Gloucestershire), Lesser Snow Goose (Moray), two American Wigeons, eight Waxwings, nine Shorelarks (Norfolk), at least nine Glossy Ibises and at least 15 Parrot Crossbills.
