There were relatively light west-north-west winds throughout another bright day, albeit one that featured snow showers late afternoon; temperatures reached three degrees C. The morning’s seawatch was quiet apart from 28,000 Guillemots that moved north. Elsewhere, the seven Lesser White-fronted Geese remained in residence. Five Golden Plovers and a Lapwing on the outer head were undoubtedly displaced due to the cold conditions, while 12 Siskins near South Landing were also new. A Short-eared Owl and 14 Grey Partridge featured at RSPB Bempton Cliffs, while the male Black Redstart lingered on the cliff top at Buckton.
