Light northerly winds changed to variable later in the day, although temperatures remained cold, reaching 8 degrees C despite sunshine. Seawatching produced three Red-throated Divers flying north, as did 618 Fulmars, four Manx Shearwaters and a Whimbrel. A total of 32 Sandwich Terns flew south (and four north), whilst three Arctic Terns moved north, as did 202 Puffins.
Two Shelduck, five Teal and the Dunlin remained at Thornwick Pool, but the majority of passerine migrants had cleared out. However, 21 Wheatears and two Redwing remained, with two newly-arrived Whinchats present. Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler, Blackcap and Whitethroat were trapped during a ringing session.
