It was a largely overcast day, with a belt of rain from mid-morning and a south-westerly wind. Seawatching produced a Blue Fulmar lingering offshore and a Bonxie that flew north. Wildfowl on the headland included 35 Teal, five Wigeon and the Pintail, a Common Buzzard frequented Micklemires and a Water Rail was at North Landing. A total of 22 Curlew represented a good tally for this winter, whilst 900 Woodpigeons were also recorded. The three Richard’s Pipits remained at North Landing.
