The weather consisted of very light southerly winds, sunny skies with increasing cloud and temperatures reaching ten degrees C. A skein of 40 Pink-footed Geese flew north over the Fog Station during the morning, whilst the headland’s freshwater sites hosted three Shelduck, 33 Wigeon, 83 Teal, two Grey Herons and a Snipe; a Woodcock was flushed for the cliff top near the Fog Station during the afternoon. Thousands of Guillemots were on the cliffs, along with several hundred Razorbills rafting close inshore and four Puffins at RSPB Bempton Cliffs. Visible migration accounted for three Lapwing, 23 Jackdaw, 39 Skylarks, eight Chaffinch, five Linnets and a Greenfinch flying south over the outer head. Two male Stonechat at North Marsh were presumably spring migrants.
