A sunny and calm day, with temperatures reaching seven degrees C after a frosty start. The highlight of the morning seawatch was a Black-throated Diver that flew north out of Bridlington Bay; tens of thousands of birds were feeding on the sea, with the vast majority Guillemots.
Wildfowl interest included two Pink-footed Geese, the Russian White-fronted Goose and 23 Teal. The Grey Phalarope showed well throughout on Thornwick Pools, where there were also two Snipe. Passerine interest included the Black Redstart at the Fog Station, two Chiffchaffs and two Corn Buntings. Two Short-eared Owls were seen at RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
