The weather consisted of relatively light westerly winds, sporadic sunny intervals and temperatures that reached seven degrees C. There was evidence of several species of wildfowl on the move, headlined by a vocal Bean Goose sp. that circled North Marsh before it headed south; 95 Pink-footed Geese flew south, a group of five headed north, while 28 frequented the outer head. In addition a Gadwall flew south on the seawatch and a Pochard visited Thornwick Pools. North Marsh attracted 32 Wigeon, whilst 125 Teal were shared between the latter and Thornwick Pools. Thornwick Lakes hosted a Mute Swan, two Tufted Ducks and two Goldeneye. The Siberian Chiffchaff remained at Thornwick.
Short-eared Owl continued to show well at RSPB Bempton Cliffs, while a cliff top field at Buckton attracted a Shore Lark and eight Lapland Buntings.
