Strong west-south-westerly winds established during a day of sunny intervals and temperatures that reached 18 degrees C. Seven Shelduck flew north during the morning’s seawatch, as did a Red-throated Diver, Manx Shearwater and 13 Sandwich Terns. Eight Mute Swans, a Ringed Plover and a Dunlin were in the Thornwick area, while a Grey Wagtail south past the Fog Station was presumably the same individual relocated at the Water Treatment Works. The Black-browed Albatross remained at RSPB Bempton Cliffs where four Ringed Plovers headed north-west.
