The weather consisted of sunny intervals, increasingly strong south-westerly winds and temperatures that reached 22 degrees C. Seawatching highlights included 91 Common Scoters flying north (55 south), 20 Manx Shearwaters, 76 Sandwich Terns north and a Common Tern flying in the same direction.
Single Wigeon and Teal were in residence. However, the day’s most notable record related to a breeding-plumaged Great White Egret that frequented North Marsh until mid-morning when it departed south.
