It was an overcast day, with occasional light rain and hardly any wind. Seawatching produced a Sooty Shearwater flying south, a Grey Plover moving north, 44 Knot and 13 Arctic Skuas heading south, whilst 19 Little Gulls flew in the opposite direction. Thornwick Pools attracted two Wigeon, a Water Rail and single Dunlin and Snipe. An adult Yellow-legged Gull and a first-winter Caspian Gull (different individual to yesterday’s bird) frequented the Outer Head.
Migrant passerines included Reed Warbler, Pied Flycatcher, Redstart, Wheatear and Whinchat, together with a Lapland Bunting.
