  A Subalpine warbler species at Portland was the pick of today's new discoveries, whilst the Black Kite that had been present on Orkney was relocated on Fair Isle, Shetland. Elsewhere Savi's Warbler (Norfolk), Iberian Chiffchaff (North Yorkshire), Bonaparte's Gull (Kent), Black Duck (Highland) and King Eider (Aberdeenshire) all lingered.

The best of the rest included Cattle Egret (Oxfordshire), Glossy Ibis (Northumberland), American Wigeon (Northumberland), Common Rosefinch (Lincolnshire), two Marsh Warblers, three Red-backed Shrikes and nine Rose-coloured Starlings.
