23rd March 2016

It was a day of light west-north-westerly winds, generally overcast skies and temperatures that reached 9 degrees C. Two Blue Fulmars attended a coble off the Headland, with a Common Buzzard flying north during the same seawatch. Single figures of Skylark, Meadow Pipit, Goldfinch and Linnet were also observed heading north.

A Tufted Duck at Thornwick Pools was newly arrived, the resident Common Buzzard remained on the edge of the village and the two Richard Pipits continued their sojourn at North Landing.
