10th April 2015

The day started with moderate south-south-westerlies and ended with breezy south-south-easterly winds, a light mist early on which never fully lifted and highs of 12°C. Star bird on the morning’s seawatch was a summer plumage Little Gull that flew south.

Land-based migrants included Woodcock, Golden Plover, two Sand Martin, two Swallow, six Chiffchaff and a Wheatear.

The Rough-legged Buzzard remained along the cliff top between Buckton and Speeton.
