The settled, sunny and (very) dry weather continued, with moderate north-easterly winds and temperatures reaching 11 degrees C. Notable seawatch records included six Red-throated Divers, four Manx Shearwaters, 16 Sandwich Terns, an Arctic Tern and two Bonxies. North Marsh attracted a pair of Gadwall, while the Goldeneye remained on Thornwick Pools. A ringtail Hen Harrier flew east over Sykes Plantation mid-morning, while a Green Sandpiper at Thornwick Pools was new. Passerine records included four House Martins, the long-staying Siberian Chiffchaff, two Reed Warblers, a Grasshopper Warbler, a female Common Redstart and three Wheatears. The Black-browed Albatross returned to RSPB Bempton Cliffs, where a White Wagtail was also recorded; three Yellow Wagtails were at nearby Buckton.
