Sunny skies again featured during a day of light onshore winds and temperatures that reached nine degrees C. Two Tufted Ducks, a Bar-tailed Godwit and 43 Sandwich Terns flew south during the seawatch, with two Manx Shearwaters heading in the opposite direction. A small influx of 27 Fieldfare was notable, with other records including 43 Sand Martins, a Redwing, two Wheatears, two Yellow Wagtails, a Siskin and two Lesser Redpolls (including one rung). Single Ring Ouzel and Yellow Wagtail flew south-east over RSPB Bempton Cliffs, where a large pod of c.35 Bottlenose Dolphins lingered offshore. Thirteen birds were trapped during a ringing session on the outer head including four Blackcaps, two Chiffchaffs and a Lesser Redpoll.
