Although the day began with light winds and sunshine, the advent of blustery northerlies brought cloudier skies; temperatures reached no higher than 11 degrees C. Three Gadwall, a Little Ringed Plover, two Dunlin, one Snipe, three Whimbrel and a Common Sandpiper were recorded on the outer head. A substantial arrival of territorial Common Whitethroats was very evident, but transient passerine migrants remained scarce; however, nine Yellow Wagtails on the outer head represented an increase.
