  The Song Sparrow and Crag Martin both remained on Fair Isle (Shetland). New discoveries included Eastern Subalpine Warbler (East Yorkshire) and Lesser Yellowlegs (Western Isles), whilst American Bittern (Suffolk) and King Eider and White-billed Diver (Aberdeenshire) all lingered.

The best of the rest included Ortolan Bunting (Shetland), two Temminck's Stints, three Bluethroats and eight Dotterel.
