The weather consisted of sunny intervals, light north-west winds and temperatures that peaked at seven degrees C. Three Egyptian Geese flew north past the Seawatch Observatory before u-turning south and eventually settling on flashes adjacent to Water Lane. One Short-eared Owl showed well between Old Fall and South Landing, with a second bird at RSPB Bempton Cliffs. A Ring-necked Parakeet that frequented gardens on the southern edge of the village added to the day’s exotic theme. Elsewhere, the Black Redstart remained in the Gorse Field, whilst 13 Corn Buntings congregated on setaside near Thornwick. The pod of 15 Bottlenose Dolphins swam north past South Landing, the Seawatch Observatory and latterly RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
