An overcast day, with light rain early evening, a relatively light south-west wind and temperatures reaching 18 degrees C. Two Shoveler, a first-summer Mediterranean Gull, 26 Sandwich Terns and six Manx Shearwaters were recorded during the morning’s seawatch.
Sightings from Bempton included 198 Swifts between the village and North Dykes, presumably birds pushed east ahead of the rainband, as well as a Marsh Harrier.
