The BAILLON'S CRAKE was showing again today, creeping out from the reeds about once every few hours (viewable from the Rifle Butts Hide at Rainham Marsh RSPB).
Two juvenile SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERS were also to be found, with singles still at Lodmoor (Dorset) and for the second day on Tresco South Beach (Scilly). The latter archipelago also held a first-winter CITRINE WAGTAIL at Porthellick Pool and 2 BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPERS on St Mary's Airfield.
A large BALEARIC SHEARWATER movement along the South Coast today, with over 250 past Start Point (South Devon) and up to 150 past Dawlish Warren NNR, Berry Head and Portland Bill.
