A day of moderate south westerly winds and generally overcast skies, with a few short sunny spells. A Cream-crown Marsh Harrier was at Northcliffe Marsh late morning, before flying south over the lighthouse grassland, representing a relatively unusual mid-winter record. The female type Black Redstart was again noted around High Stacks, with the Snow Bunting continuing to show well along the clifftop adjacent to the golf course. Other highlights included five Woodcock, 22 Curlew, Water Rail, 10 Wigeon, Shelduck, 36 Yellowhammer and five Stonechat. Four Lapland Bunting remained at Buckton, with 55 Pink-footed Geese in nearby fields.
