Light winds throughout, with a sunny morning and increased cloud in the afternoon; temperatures reached a warm 19 degrees C. Five Common Scoters, a Common Tern, one Sandwich Tern, 16 Little Gulls and seven Red-throated Divers featured on the morning seawatch. A Red-breasted Merganser was still present off South Landing. At least 400 Pink-footed Geese toured the headland, while nine Little Egrets fed below the South Cliffs at low tide. A Ring-necked Parakeet flew west over Oceanview, and latterly the village, while the Barred Warbler remained at South Landing and the Cetti’s Warbler at Thornwick Pools.
