The day began with heavy, overcast skies before sunny intervals dominated; there were relatively light northerly winds throughout and a high of 14 degrees C. Highlights were the discovery of a singing Marsh Warbler at South Landing and a male Red-backed Shrike along Stonepit Lane, between Bempton village and North Dykes. A Hobby also flew south-west over Bempton village. The male Red-backed Shrike also remained on the cliff top at Buckton.
Elsewhere, two summer-plumaged Great Northern Divers flew north past the Fog Station early morning and two Short-eared Owls hunted cliff top fields between North Dykes and North Landing. Passerine interest included a Pied Flycatcher at South Landing, two Wheatears and a Hooded Crow on nearby Beacon Hill.
