A quieter day following the increased coverage of the Bank Holiday weekend. The seawatch was fairly uneventful but there was a White Wagtail on the Outer Head and a Whimbrel flew north at Thornwick Pool where there was also a single schinzii Dunlin, 4 Shelduck, 2 Sedge Warblers and 2 Yellow Wagtails. A Green Sandpiper and a Dunlin were present near New Fall and 2 Bar tailed Godwits at South Landing where there were two well grown Tawny Owl chicks still in a nest. A total of 16 Wheatear were reported with 2 at the foghorn, 8 at North Marsh, 5 in the Buckton area and 1 at South Landing. Buckton also had 2 Yellow Wagtails, a Blackcap and a single Goldcrest.
Additional Outer Head migrants were 2 Sand Martin, 8 House Martin, 16 Swallow, 1 Yellow Wagtail, 12 Whitethroat and a single Willow Warbler.
A late received record of a Hoopoe on private land in the Buckton/Bempton area was a surprise.
