It was an overcast day, with light winds until the arrival of a front late morning which brought heavy rain; subsequently winds switched to the north, while temperatures reached 18 degrees C. An adult Pomarine Skua flew north during an evening seawatch that also featured 762 Puffins and 188 Manx Shearwaters heading in the same direction; an additional 32 Manx moved north during a morning seawatch.
Sightings from RSPB Bempton Cliffs included two Mute Swans, 52 Common Scoters, two Whimbrel and 486 Swifts; the latter moving south-east ahead of the rain.
