A south-south-easterly wind veered south-south-west later during a day that featured sunny intervals and temperatures that reached nine degrees C. The morning seawatch was quiet, although six Wigeon flew south and 60 Razorbills represented an increase as birds started to return to inshore waters around the colony.
A skein of 40 Pink-footed Geese flew south over North Dykes, where 27 Woodcock remained, as did two Lapland Buntings. Four Long-tailed Ducks were on the sea off South Landing, which also attracted six Woodcock. Additional sightings elsewhere included a single Woodcock, four Common Buzzards, 62 Redwing, 69 Fieldfare, ten Song Thrush and six Mistle Thrush.
