An overcast day, with spells of rain in the afternoon and moderate south-westerly winds. During the seawatch, a pale-bellied Brent Goose flew north, three Little Gulls and a Bonxie headed in the opposite direction and two Arctic Skuas were logged.
Two Little Egrets fed on the beach near South Landing, but better still, a Bittern was located at Thornwick Pools near to dusk; only the sixth observatory record, although the third this year. West of the Dykes, the Red-backed Shrike and Yellow-browed Warbler remained at Bempton Cliffs RSPB.
