The weather consisted largely overcast skies, blustery westerly winds and a high of 17 degrees C. Seawatch highlights included a Teal, 53 Common Scoters, 14 Sandwich Terns, an Arctic Skua, 350 Puffins (333 north) and 11 Manx Shearwaters. The Quail continued to call from crop adjacent to Old Fall, while a Grasshopper Warbler was singing at Beacon Hill.
