A day of strong westerly winds, sunny intervals and temperatures reaching 11 degrees C. During the seawatch, 220 Fulmars flew north, with eight Red-throated Divers and a Great Crested Grebe heading south. Sightings from South Landing included four Eider offshore and a Chiffchaff in the ravine. However, the day’s highlight was the re-appearance of the Bittern at Thornwick Pools which was seen flying across the pool between the two areas of phragmites.
