Overcast skies dominated after a relatively bright start, with a moderate south-westerly wind developing and rain arriving late afternoon; late morning temperatures were only three degrees C. The seawatch was quiet, although single Velvet Scoter and Goldeneye were seen off South Landing. An influx of thrushes was evident, with 360 Fieldfares (& six Redwing) making landfall on the outer head before they headed west; five Song Thrush were likely relatively local birds displaced by recent frosts.
