There were blustery westerly winds throughout a day of sunny intervals and temperatures that reached 21 degrees C. Seawatch highlights included 163 Common Scoters, four Sandwich Terns, three Common Terns, a Mediterranean Gull, one Red-throated Diver and 21 Manx Shearwaters.
Wader movement was again apparent, with a single Wood Sandpiper headlining alongside single Green Sandpiper and Greenshank as well as two Golden Plovers. A Cuckoo that overflew the Gorse Field represented a notable sighting of a species that is never locally common.
Odonata interest was provided by three Red-veined Darters at Thornwick Pools.
