Friday 29th June 2018
	The highlight of the day was a Squacco Heron in East Yorkshire at Kilnsea where it showed all day. Rarities elsewhere comprised a Pacific Golden Plover new in Cornwall at Gwithian, a brief Alpine Swift in Shropshire at Broseley, the territiorial Great Reed Warbler still in Cambridgeshire, Black-winged Stilt in Norfolk and Bonaparte's Gulls in both Kent and London. Scarcities included Rose-coloured Starling (Aberdeenshire), Golden Oriole (Gloucestershire) and Red-backed Shrike (Surrey).
