Winds were light, generally from the south-west, with a marked increase in temperature to a high of 11 degrees C. A southbound Velvet Scoter was the highlight of a morning seawatch. On the land, a Water Rail remained on the edge of the Lighthouse Field, while a Merlin and 30 Snow Buntings were at Beacon Hill.
The first Gannets returned to the cliffs at Bempton, where a lone Snow Bunting and 24 Corn Buntings were recorded.
