The weather consisted of light easterly winds, a thick sea fret throughout the morning, followed by extensive sunny intervals and temperatures that reached 14 degrees C. Thornwick Pools attracted the year’s first Avocet, together with five Ringed Plover, Redshank and three Dunlin. Elsewhere, a Pink-footed Goose lingered on Thornwick Lakes and a pair of Eider were off the South Cliffs. The highlight was the discovery of a singing Marsh Warbler along the South Cliffs, with lone Willow Warbler, Garden Warbler, Spotted Flycatcher and Lesser Redpoll also on the outer head.
