It was generally sunny, with moderate westerly winds. Five Pink-footed Geese accompanied the Greylag flock, the drake Pochard and three Snipe remained in residence at Thornwick Pools, whilst 12 Lapland Buntings were again near South Landing.

West of the Dykes, a minimum two Short-eared Owls frequented Bempton Cliffs RSPB.
