After an overcast morning with rain first thing, the afternoon was much brighter; moderate/strong westerly winds were a feature throughout. During the morning seawatch, seven Common Scoter flew south, with a Sandwich Tern heading north. In an otherwise quiet day, the year’s first Osprey flew south-west over South Dykes mid-afternoon, whilst the only passerine migrants were an acredula Willow Warbler near North Dykes and a Garden Warbler at Hartendale.
