10th December 2015

It was a day of moderate south-westerly winds and overcast skies; with rain in the morning. During the seawatch, a Black-throated Diver flew north, with four Tufted Ducks and three Wigeon flying south. Thornwick attracted 15 Teal, Water Rail and three Snipe, whilst two Grey Herons roamed the Headland. Easily the day’s most notable record related to a Marsh Tit that visited a garden on the southern edge of the village; only Flamborough’s third ever.
