A day when the weather gods were proven not to be birders – foggy/misty for large portions of the day, with persistent rain and a high of six degrees C in light south-east winds. Thornwick Lakes hosted seven Tufted Ducks and 15 Coots, while Thornwick Pools attracted 15 Teal and a single Coot. A Bar-tailed Godwit remained on South Landing beach, while a Water Rail showed on nearby Highcliffe Pond. Two Fieldfare and a Tawny Owl were in the Dykes.
