	A White-rumped Sandpiper was found on the Humber Estuary at Spurn in East Yorkshire and a juvenile Black-winged Stilt was at Cliffe Pools in Kent. The Greater Sand Plover continued its stay on the beaches around Newbiggin in Northumberland and the Stejneger's Scoter was back on the sea off Musselburgh in Lothian. Other lingering rarities included the Pacific Diver in County Clare, Ferruginous Ducks in both Buckinghamshire and Warwickshire, Bonaparte's Gull in Kent and Lesser Yellowlegs in Fife.
