A bright day, but feeling cool with a light northerly wind and best of 11 degrees C. A Spoonbill flying south-west over the Golf Course at 1728hrs represented the day’s highlight. The morning seawatch featured five Eiders, a Sandwich Tern and three Red-throated Divers, while two Gadwall were at North Marsh and another drake at Thornwick Pools. Passerine interest included Reed Warblers back on territory at Thornwick Pools, six Wheatear, a Yellow Wagtail, one White Wagtail and two Siskin. A Merlin was the most noteworthy record from RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
