A relatively overcast day, with increasingly strong south-westerly winds and temperatures that peaked at 14 degrees C. During the seawatch, four Eiders, a Lesser Black-backed Gull and a Puffin flew north, whilst a Bonxie headed in the opposite direction. In addition, 25 Bottlenose Dolphins fed offshore before they headed off north. Land-based sightings included the long-staying Russian White-fronted Goose, 22 Wigeon, the year’s first Hooded Crow near South Dykes, a Grey Wagtail and the Richard’s Pipit; the latter at North Landing.
