10th February 2022

A sunny day, with a moderate south-westerly wind and temperatures that reached a maximum of seven degrees C. Tens of thousands of Guillemots were again on the cliffs, with hundreds of Razorbills on the sea; a Goosander that flew south during the seawatch was notable. The first-winter Velvet Scoter lingered off South Landing, where three Sanderling were on the beach, while a lone Woodcock was in North Dykes. At least two Shore Lark remained on the cliff top at Buckton together with several Lapland Buntings.
