Generally sunny, with light variable winds and a best of 17 degrees C. A Barred Warbler at South Landing provided the day’s highlight, where a Yellow-browed Warbler also remained. Other notable passerine records included 410 Skylarks, two Wheatear, three Redwings, five Grey Wagtails, two Siskin, 98 Lesser Redpoll and four Brambling.
Single Red-breasted Merganser and Mediterranean Gull were logged on the seawatch. A total of 1384 Pink-footed Geese moved south, while the calm conditions encouraged an unprecedented 75 Common Buzzards and four Red Kites to drift onto the headland early afternoon.
Sightings from the Bempton area included 480 Pink-footed Geese (with some duplication with the outer head totals), 24 Goldcrests, two Willow Warblers, two Grey Wagtails and 50 Yellowhammers.
