18th December 2017

A day of sunny intervals and light north-west winds with temperatures eventually reaching six degrees C. Seawatching was relatively quiet, although low thousands of Guillemots flew north, with substantial numbers again on the cliffs.

Passerine interest included 32 Linnets on Beacon Hill, six Stonechats, whilst six Lapland Buntings were located between Thornwick and North Dykes.
