There were overcast skies for the majority of a day that saw temperatures reach nine degrees C before rain arrived late afternoon. Large numbers of auks arrived back at the colony; joining the Guillemots were many hundreds of Razorbills, with a couple of Puffins off the Fog Station and nine at RSPB Bempton Cliffs. Additional sightings on the outer head included 60 Pink-footed Geese moving north, 14 Snipe, a Jack Snipe and the Water Pipit. Additional sightings from Bempton included eight Lapwings, a Golden Plover, a second calendar-year Mediterranean Gull, a Lesser Black-backed Gull, two Short-eared Owls and two Mistle Thrush.
