Despite a relatively bright day, snow was still lying throughout, while there was a moderate south-westerly wind and a top temperature of four degrees C. Wildfowl clinging on to the small patches of ice-free water included a Shoveler, 72 Wigeon, 131 Teal and two Tufted Duck. Six Woodcock were also present, a Merlin overflew Thornwick Lakes and a Short-eared Owl hunted cliff top fields at North Landing. Concentrations of passerines as a result of the snow cover included 25 Redwings, 12 Song Thrush, six Fieldfare, 95 Skylarks, 76 Meadow Pipits, 110 Yellowhammers and seven Reed Buntings. In addition, the Black Redstart re-appeared near High Stacks and a flock of seven Waxwings flew south-west over the entrance to Bridlington Links GC.
Sightings from RSPB Bempton Cliffs included a Woodcock, two Short-eared Owls, a Lapland Bunting and 60 Snow Buntings.
