Another overcast, misty and cold day, with a light/moderate northerly wind. Two Firecrests were located in South Landing, a Black Redstart re-appeared in the village and a Wheatear frequented Beacon Hill, whilst two Hawfinch visited garden feeders in the village.  A Siskin was also present at the same feeding station, with the equivalent at South Dykes attracting a Nuthatch and two Brambling.

West of the Dykes, sightings from RSPB Bempton Cliffs included a Woodcock, ten Chiffchaffs, two Willow Warblers, 19 Redwing, three Fieldfare, 17 Robins, a Lesser Redpoll and 15 Corn Buntings.
