Strong westerly winds were a feature of a bright day with temperatures reaching nine degrees C. A Goosander flew south during the morning seawatch, with 380 Gannets and 121 Razorbills moving in the same direction.
The Grey Phalarope lingered on Thornwick Pools and showed well to a steady stream of admirers throughout; other sightings there included 13 Teal, a Chiffchaff and three Corn Buntings. Wildfowl interest also included two Mute Swans and the Russian White-fronted Goose.
