Light north-westerly and latterly northerlies, with sunny intervals throughout. Seawatching highlights were limited to single Manx Shearwater, Sandwich and Arctic Terns flying north. A Whimbrel frequented fields near Thornwick, where the Common Sandpiper remained. Passerines included 15 Wheatear, one Whinchat, three Stonechats, two Garden Warblers and single Redstart, Spotted Flycatcher and Siskin.
