  Rarity highlights comprised lingering Bonaparte's Gulls in London and Kent and four flyover Bee-eaters in Lincolnshire, whilst late news from yesterday concerned a Squacco Heron in Pembrokshire and the long-staying Iberian Chiffchaff on the Wirral.

The best of the rest included Rose-coloured Starling (Cornwall), Pectoral Sandpiper (Northumberland), Cattle Egret (Merseyside) and Red-backed Shrike (Surrey).
