An overcast day with light westerly winds. The female-type Black Redstart continued to linger around the Fog Station, with the Snow Bunting still along the clifftop near the Golf Course. Thornwick pool held a Shelduck and 75 Teal. A Woodcock and four Mistle Thrush were around Oceanview. Highlights from the sea watch included two Common Scoter, 56 Red-throated Diver, 60 Fulmar and ten Kittiwake. A minimum of 30 Lapland Bunting remained at Buckton, with two seen over nearby RSPB Bempton. Eight Corn Bunting and 25 Yellowhammer were also at Buckton.
