Seawatch highlights included a Whimbrel, three Common Terns, 15 Lesser Black-backed Gulls, a Red-throated Diver and one Manx Shearwater. Thornwick Pools hosted two Shelduck, two Gadwall, a Pintail and a pair of Little Grebe, while a Ringed Plover visited the nearby Lakes. Migrant passerines were scarce, although Reed Warblers at the Lighthouse and South Dykes were ‘fresh in’, as was a Spotted Flycatcher at South Landing. Elsewhere, a Wheatear was at RSPB Bempton Cliffs and a Little Owl at Buckton.
