A Wilson's Petrel was off St.Kilda in Western Isles and a Black Kite flew past Hopton-on-Sea in Norfolk. Staying rarities included the Greater Sand Plover in Lothian, Pied-billed Grebe in Highland, Semipalmated Sandpiper in Highland, Pacific Golden Plover in Co.Clare, King Eider in Moray, Black-winged Stilt in Kent, Bonaparte's Gulls in Kent and Co.Louth, White-rumped Sandpiper in Cleveland and Blyth's Reed Warbler in Cumbria. The Lammergeier, presumably offspring of introduced birds in the Alps, reappeared in Derbyshire. 

Other news included Serin (Suffolk), Red-necked Phalarope (Norfolk), nine Rose-coloured Starlings, two Red-backed Shrikes and two Glossy Ibises.
