Overcast throughout, with a northerly wind gradually abating and temperatures reaching ten degrees C. The morning seawatch was quiet with seven Sandwich Terns, three Red-throated Divers and three Manx Shearwaters flying north, although a brief watch off the Fog Station early afternoon was rewarded with another Great Northern Diver reorientating back north.
Ten Mute Swans and the Whooper Swan remained, as did the quartet of Bar-tailed Godwits at South Landing and the Turtle Dove at Oceanview. Additional interest was provided by a female Black Redstart near North Dykes, two Garden Warblers, two Whinchat, two Wheatears, six Siskin and five Corn Buntings.
A Long-eared Owl was located at RSPB Bempton Cliffs, where single Wheatear, Whinchat and Siskin were also present.
