Although a sunny day, strong westerly winds made birding difficult. Seawatching records included one Shelduck, eight Common Scoter, six Red-breasted Mergansers, six Manx Shearwaters, a Little Ringed Plover, one Greenshank, a Ruff, 22 Sandwich Terns, 27 Common Terns, eight Arctic Terns, a Bonxie and an Arctic Skua.
The strong winds pushed two Marsh Harriers, two Red Kites and two Common Buzzards onto the headland. Thornwick Pools attracted a Shelduck, 14 Dunlin, a Greenshank and two Snipe, with a Pintail at North Marsh.
A Cuckoo remained at Thornwick Pools, whilst two Spotted Flycatchers appeared on the outer head.
