A bright sunny day, with a strengthening south-easterly wind and high of 17 degrees C. Unfortunately there was no sign of the Song Sparrow all day. A morning seawatch was rewarded with eight Sandwich Terns, two Manx Shearwaters and a Red-throated Diver. In addition, five Gadwall were on Thornwick, a summer-plumaged Great Northern Diver flew north and eight Sandwich Terns also headed in the same direction over the village. Five Gadwall were on Thornwick Pools, a Garden Warbler sang on the southern edge of the village and a creamcrown Marsh Harrier moved south-east there. Mid-evening a Marsh Harrier was also hunting fields near Buckton Hall.
