Cloudy and relatively coolby recent standards with a maximumtemperature of 17 Celsius and a light breeze varying from north-east to south back to east.
The combined totals for both morning and evening seawatches included 151 Common Scoter, 121 Manx Shearwaters, 311 Oystercatchers, two Whimbrel, 27 Black-tailed Godwits, eight Mediterranean Gulls, a juvenile Yellow-legged Gull and 342 Sandwich, 5 Common and two Arctic Terns.
Two Green Sandpipers and a Dunlin with six Yellow Wagtails were attracted to Thornwick Pools while a Whinchat was along the Motorway Hedge.
Bempton Cliffs continued to steal the limelight, this time with an adult Long-tailed Skua, which must have been an incongruous sight sat on a fence post for a while before it flew east. The Red-tailed Shrike, now without its red tail due to moult, and the Black-browed Albatross were both still in residence. Other highlights included a Whimbrel, two Golden Plover and a Wheatear. A Quail was calling near Buckton.
