A moderate northerly pegged temperatures to 9°C under variable cloud cover.

A quiet seawatch with the highlight being five Red-throated Divers.

The waters at Thornwick held the usual 8 Mute and single Whooper Swans, a Barnacle Goose while the North marsh area was still attractive to 55 Wigeon. Two Red-throated Divers, an Eider and twelve Common Scoter were off South Dykes as four Shelduck passed. Seven Redwing fed in hedgerows along the south cliffs.

Buckton Pond continued to host two Wigeon and eight Teal where a young Merlin also made an appearance.
