A sunny and mild day with light north westerly wind. Though quieter than the previous day, birds were still on the move on the sea watch, amounting to 4 Greylag Goose, 2 Shelduck, 2 Mallard, 2 Teal, 11 Common Scoter and 22 Red-throated Diver. As is typical for this time of year there was also a small movement of corvids offshore, with 26 Carrion Crow, 2 Jackdaw and a Rook.
The two Russian White-fronted Geese remained on the headland along with 64 Greylags and 8 Canada Geese, whilst Black Redstarts in the walled compound on the golf course had reduced down to one female. A single Brambling was in gardens in the village. Other counts included 10 Wigeon, 29 Teal, 2 Chiffchaff and 7 Redwing.
At Buckton, the Willow Tit which has overwintered was heard singing, whilst 80 Redwing, 6 Fieldfare, Water Rail and Woodcock were also in the area.
