The most significant news was the late reporting of a White-billed Diver photographed at close range off South Landing on 7th March by a visitor.
Winds remained in the north, with a heavy overcast, thick mist for much of the day accompanied by light drizzle and temperatures reaching a miserly six degrees C. During the seawatch, three Shelduck, an Eider, 803 Fulmars, a Blue Fulmar and 109 Puffins flew north. Nine Bottlenose Dolphins swam north out of Bridlington Bay during the day (groups of two and seven).
The North Marsh area hosted 37 Wigeon, 76 Teal, 12 Curlews and an Oystercatcher. The Thornwick area attracted a Pink-footed Goose, Shelduck, 13 Teal and a Little Grebe. Passerine interest included a Redwing, 2950 Starlings (Mid Dykes), a Grey Wagtail, two Scandinavian Rock Pipits (Fog Station), four Siskin, a Snow Bunting and a Lapland Bunting.
