There were blustery south-west winds throughout a day that featured sunny intervals and some light rain; temperatures reached 24 degrees C. The winds were responsible for a southerly movement of 847 Swifts in the early morning, as well as pushing four Red Kites, two Hobbies and eight Siskins onto the headland. A Green Woodpecker at Hartendale was a local rarity, while a Blue Fulmar was the best of a seawatch. Sightings from RSPB Bempton Cliffs included single Whimbrel and Mediterranean Gull.
