Saturday 24th November

A cloudy day with light north easterly winds. A single Black-throated Diver flew north on the sea watch, with other notable counts including 41 Red-throated Diver and six Common Scoter.

Land birds were headlined by a Waxwing briefly in a village garden. A single Nuthatch was present at South Dykes; likely representing one of the lingering individuals from earlier in the year. The Pied Crow also remained in the village.

A Snow Bunting flew in off the sea at Bempton along with 60 Golden Plover, whilst a Woodcock was present in the Dell.
