Overcast for the majority of daylight hours, with very light winds and temperatures peaking at eight degrees C. Good numbers of Red-throated Divers remained, with 105 recorded off the Fog Station, where a lone Fieldfare also flew in off the sea. The sea off Beacon Hill attracted seven Great Crested Grebes, 16 Common Scoters and the long-staying Velvet Scoter.
Wildfowl interest from freshwater sites included a Mute Swan, one Pink-footed Goose, 42 Wigeon, 45 Teal, two Tufted Ducks and two Goldeneyes. Three Water Rails included a duo on the outer head, with additional interest provided by four Woodcock and a Jack Snipe. A tally of 12 Mistle Thrushes was notable, as were 19 Fieldfare, 16 Redwing and seven Stonechats.
Away from the outer head, 80 Pink-footed Geese flew south-west over Bempton village, while three Short-eared Owls were still hunting cliff top fields at RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
