Weather was unsettled with heavy rain showers throughout the day. A force 3 north-westerly was again conducive to good sea-watching. Particularly notable were movements of duck heading north, including 1 Pochard, 10 Tufted Duck, 1 Shoveler (south) and 5 Wigeon. Other birds on the seawatch were 1 Pomarine Skua (south), 1 Great Northern Diver (north), 10 Red-throated Diver and 73 Fulmar, including 1 blue morph. A total of 17,350 Guillemot flew north, with 250 heading south; only 5 Razorbill were seen and 56 Shag left the roost.
On the land, the Chiffchaff at Oceanview was the only notable occurrence.
